This post reaches back into my archives to a painting from twenty-two years ago. It depicts the street in Laurel, Maryland where I lived at the time, and a 1959 Buick that I owned back then. This canvas has hung on display in every house I've lived in since it was created.

"August Afternoon." Oil on canvas, 32 x 48 inches. Completed in 1997.
