Ketchup Catsup

I was taken by the repetitious pattern of red leatherette and chrome stools as they curved around the counter, with that little bottle of ketchup holding court. But I had to sit a long time with my fries waiting for the lunch crowd to clear out before I could get the photo I needed. I took quite a few photos of this little jewel with plans to paint from them. The waitress was eyed me suspiciously. Click to buy.

Red Chair, Nobody There

Late afternoon after a late lunch in a cafe in Dobb's Ferry. I was taken by the way the fading sun illuminated the edge of of the red vinyl chair. The emptiness and the stark light, gives it a Hopperesque feel. I'd like to think so anyway.
