Charles Wysocki - Moonlight Passage
|
|
The following is Charles Wysocki's own commentary written to accompany the release of this charming image.
"What a delightful interlude with nature I found in this region of my dear olde Maine. Just one of many remote and scenic inlets, this snug harbor and all its surrounds are bathed in a moonlight that enhances the rich, dark colors, textures and movements here. I clearly recall the hiss of bacon and eggs frying and the enticing aromas of fresh-perked coffee and of pancake batter smacking the grill inside Rosie's.
Rose Edweenah Cramer offers just one marvelous meal - breakfast - served all day long. If she's up to it and feels your friendly vibrations, she might just sing and whistle a brief merry tune to accompany your simple menu selections. I invite you to lose yourself in this romantic scene and allow it to soothe your soul as it does mine." - Charles Wysocki
Charles Wysocki's work is a celebration of bygone days. His paintings, with wit and grace, capture a storybook era when hard work and quiet pleasures represented the very best of what our country has come to mean. Careful observers will often see the American flag on display in these nostalgic images. Note, however, the flag does not hang limply on the pole but stands out proudly on an imaginary breeze, an on-going salute from the artist to his beloved country.
