  1. Just starting to get into your blog. I live in California but grew up around where you are (I used to stand on the Croton train platform a lot (30 yrs ago!) when going into the city) and noticed a few of the views seemed really familiar to me, before I noted where you're from. I often painted the Hudson from the Bridge from Highland to Poughkeepsie.

  2. Larry,
    I just read your comments about my blog and paintings. We probably stood next to each other on that train platform 30 years ago.

    I am now a full-time painter and want to connect with other plein air painters. Where in California are you painting now? Are you a member of any group in CA?

    Many thanks, Steve
