Heat Waves in the Swamp



It's not exactly a swamp day in Berkeley, but warm nonetheless--- today, Charles Burchfield show at the Whitney is on my mind. After last night's reception with artist & experimental animator Sarah Jane Lapp, today I have an appetite for the ethereal, especially as figurative works on paper.












Charles Burchfield, Glory of Spring (Radiant Spring), 1950. Watercolor on paper, 401⁄8 x 293⁄4 in. (101.6 × 73.7 cm). Parrish Art Museum, Southampton, New York. Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Corning Clark, 1959.
