          In this Vermont Night
          Scene Painting, "Burlington Time Clock", an original
          24' x 36 inch oil on panel, I was inspired by the primitive appearance
          of a time clock located at the edge of Lake Champlain in south
          Burlington, Vermont. Yes, I know when the aliens come here is
          surely where they will land, but that is not my point. What I'm
          impressed with from this place is the big nights sky, so much
          so I decided to make a painting. After a bit of pondering I knew
          I needed a great nocturnal sky coalescing around a ringed moon
          in the company of twinkling spangled stars peering through vapor-like
          clouds giving illumination to this most beautiful spot where
          the natural cosmos and earthlings are engaged in a long dialogue
          about the meaning of the heavens above. Some how or other you
          can tell time from this spot if you know what your doing. According
          to my clock it's about 1:32am. All is well.
