“With a beauty all his own Reigns winter keen and hoary; Sweet the springtide’s vivid smile, Sweet the summer’s glory; But autumn’s bounteous hand, In the cloudless weather, Brings flower, fruit, and harvest home To the world together.” – from ‘Autumn Hedges’ by S. K. Phillips.

Have you seen this missing painting in NYC? I abandoned several of my paintings on the curb with the trash in Manhattan in 2010, after I got displaced during a rough patch. I wonder if someone decided to take them into their home, or if they're sitting in a landfill.
