edward hopper's girls




If I could step into a painting for a day, there's a good chance I'd pick an Edward Hopper image.

    Paint me in to the fourth one, please.
    I love the light in Hooper's paintings, everything feels so crisp and lonely.

    I love Edward Hopper. I often picture myself as one or the other of two of Hopper's girls. The solitary girl in the cafe is one of these. The other is the girl in the green sweater in the cafe having coffee/tea with her girlfriend (not included in your post). Thanks so much for reminding me of this!

    Thanks all!

    Ginger-- it's the light that gets me too! Some of it's so stark, some so dreamy; always really atmospheric!

    Wardrobeales-- oh yeah, "Chop Suey", right? I almost snuck that one in, but chose "Automat". I love their 20s dresses, cloches, and the lonely lighting in both!
