The painting titled 'The Rain It Raineth Every Day' by Norman Garstin is immensely ethereal .

The hue of the shiny wet sand should have a name all its own. What does one call that tint ?

The vividness of the cityscape; its angular symmetry is like unto a lucid vision .

Remarkable work ...

Sincerely ,

Jason Leary
