Pozzo Remembered in Paint


A reader, responding to my recent post about the closure of Pozzo Pastry Shop, told me that she had memorialized the bakery in a painting last year. Here is the artwork above. It makes for a nice remembrance of the place. Reminds me a bit of the work of Edward Hopper. It's lonely in that way.

  1. Thanks so much for posting my painting of Pozzo's Bakery on Lost City. I'm often told that much of my work is "Hopperesque". BTW, I'm a she, not a he, but I'm glad that the painting looks like it could have been painted by either or. Enjoy reading your blog too. Sharon
