"Edward Hopper, the best-known American realist of the inter-war period once said: 
"The man's the work.  Something doesn't come out of nothing".
This offers a clue to interpreting the work of an artist who was not only intensely private, but who made solitude and introspection important themes in his paintings".

I love how Hopper captured the light and shade in his paintings!
This is my little attempt to copy his work!
