From Sperryville Cemetery – Sunset, Saturday, 29 September 2012
William Van Doren, FROM SPERRYVILLE CEMETERY. Sunset from Sperryville, Rappahannock County, Va. Oil on watercolor block, 13 x 19.
It can be difficult to see the sunset from Sperryville itself, because it’s right next to the Blue Ridge. So I drove a mile or so east to the cemetery, up on a little rise. The crowd there was a lot quieter than the one at the opening for the fantastic show of new work by Mike Fitts at Haley Fine Art.
