William Van Doren, HOW MANY TIMES DOES AN ANGEL FALL. Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on canvas, 20 x 20.
Original thought in working with a leaden overcast was something along the lines of “attempted alchemy,” but it just didn't work out that way. Title is from “Blackstar,” the song by David Bowie.

William Van Doren, AVENUE/DAYLIGHT EXTENDED/ENDED. Sunset from York Road and Nicoll Avenue, Baltimore, Md. Oil on canvas, 28 x 30.
My view was of the western terminus of a street (Nicoll Avenue) in northern Baltimore, looking across York Road. Overcast and snowing. A detailed picture of the buildings and trees on Nicoll is hidden underneath all the paint, and then just barely reiterated in stylized fashion on top.
