I have almost never seen this kind of still, poised realist paintings. A story about the artist Edward Hopper is that he would be visited at his atelier in New York and found to be still and silent all the time. It would sometimes be a couple of days before he said something like... Today i think i will work on that canvas...
A bit like my mom actually ;)
Beautiful art, like the old posters in France but more vibrant and still...
