Thanks for posting the Edward Hopper work; it reminds me why I like him so much. I was not familar with the work of Isabel Bishop. I really find her color pallete to be quite distinctive; rather muted although with some loud colors thrown in at times. A very evocative feel for a painting; evocative of what I am not sure though. Great stuff.

So Hopper's painting was the source material for Helnwein's Boulevard of Broken Dreams. Didn't know that

 

:applause:

 

Hopper's style is one of the most often appropriated in the art world. Anytime I go to an art exhibit there are at least 2 artists portraying urban alienation and/or decay in his way. His use of broad strokes is easy to copy, never with his success, of course.
