Saturday night pleasures

"My flocks feed not, my ewes breed not,
My rams speed not, all is amiss:
Love is denying, Faith is denying,
Heart' renying, causer of this."
(Richard Barnfield)

I love Edward Hopper paintings, there's so much mood and feeling in them, it's awesome.

True that. Apparently most of the women in the pictures are modelled on his wife (as in she posed for a lot of them). Which is a bit disturbing when you consider the subject matter in some of them... possibly (have a great essay on Hopper written by a friend of mine which I may get around to posting a link to when erm I can be arsed).
