[QUOTE="Zinnie, post: 506012, member: 9303"]You're welcome, Aaron. And wow - that's an excellent observation, especially given that Hopper did soooo many indoor scenes. And looking at those now, although mostly oil paintings, with a few etchings thrown in, many are of just one person, alone, looking variously despondent. I am of totally mixed minds again now - perhaps it IS a Hopper! I thought of John Sloan right away but his style is far more loose and although his scenes might be somewhat somber at times they rarely have the feel that Hopper likes to convey. Or this sketch. Yeah, not a match, I'd say. Well, this continues to be a mystery then. Do you think sending an email to the Norman Rockwell Museum might be helpful? I think I'd do that at this point. And anywhere else that has Hopper works. Tate Museum and other places have his sketchbook/s. Pinterest has many pages posted. I didn't see anything like your artwork in them, from those I saw. Glad you enjoyed Martin Lewis - I'd only seen a couple of his, had no idea he was so prolific! I really like almost all of his works. I think seeing them all made me a bit giddy with him as the mystery artist. :rolleyes: Live and learn, eh. Continued good sleuthing, everyone! Pat P, an excellent viewpoint on Lewis too. It all counts. :)[/QUOTE]
