BVD in Blue Ridge, Sunset Paintings

William Theodore Van Doren. Painted at Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on canvas, 16 x 20.

Near-far, white-blue, veils of haze and all the way past the veils, terrestrial contrails and untracked space, the gray in the gold, the pink in the gray, a gauzy mess barely noticed on the way back from Christmas shopping turns out to be, when you get home, a big garden of little evening glories.
