Edward Hopper: The Story of His Life by Sergio Rossi

August 22, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

If you are looking for a true biography of Edward Hopper, the graphic novel Edward Hopper: The Story of His Life, is not it. But if you want a more artistic look at the artist and his relationship with art in general, his own art, his wife of decades, the artists he was taught by, and were students with, plus feelings he had on Paris, New York, and life itself told by conversations between himself and his wife, then this is it. We even see […]

Two or three years ago, while we were on vacation in The Berkshires, we spent a day at the Norman Rockwell museum. It was great. We learned a ton about Rockwell and his life and walked around the gorgeous property where he painted. As an added bonus, there was a special exhibit on display, featuring all (or at least a lot) of Edward Hopper’s Cape Cod paintings.

Probably more like 3.5 stars, but I’ll round up in Bernie’s honor

January 3, 2017 by badkittyuno 3 Comments

I’ve been reading and rereading Lawrence Block’s Bernie Rhodenbarr series for years (like, probably close to 20 years — they were on the shelf above Lillian Jackson Braun’s books at my library and I picked them up at some point in middle school when I’d exhausted The Cat Who…) but I’ve never really read anything else by him — although he’s published quite a bit. I saw his name on this story collection, along with some other favorites (Stephen King, Jeffery Deaver, Lee Child, and Craig Ferguson, […]
