Following the Van Gogh observation that thinking of a second object while painting the first will enrich the painting, I am here painting the stones and "oyster" (-shaped) rocks I picked up at Watch Hill and, also, a day and night at Pacific Grove, where a splendid sea-view cast amazing reflections back into the room and the glass and vase and fruit onto the mirror over the mantel-piece.
