American Art

        I thought today may be a good day to look at American Art. With no rhyme or reason, I picked a few of my favorite artists and decided to share. I think these works are among the most poignant  pieces of art our country has produced. Eakins, Hopper, Nevelson, Ryman -- just some of my faves, and of course master art teacher- Robert Henri.



These ( above)  are by Thomas Eakins.




After Eakins, above, are by Edward Hopper.




Some Nevelson pieces (above).


A white painting by Robert Ryman.


And of course, a figure by Robert Henri, who was a master teacher and who wrote the very inspirational book " The Art Spirit"
