In the Falls—a closeup of water and rocks at Umpachene Falls in New Marlborough, Mass.

Two paintings, "In the Falls" and "Egremont Barns," were accepted into the benefit show for the Mark Twain Library in Redding, Conn., running from last Friday to next Sunday. I took a look at the show on Monday, and it was quite fine, with only a few clunkers. Both my paintings got good locations, where you can stand back and look at them (always a good thing to do with my paintings), and my bin of unframed works has a nice spot across from the checkout desk.
