For many years my wife and I rented a house for a couple of weeks with our family in Wellfleet on Cape Cod. I loved the landscape there. I was fascinated by the scrub pines, the beaches, and bluffs, and, of course, the water crashing into the bluffs on the ocean side and quietly lapping the shore on the bay side. But, like Edward Hopper, and many other artists, what I found the most fascinating was the Cape light, warm and cool, clear and hazy all at the same time.

![Autumn Watching TV Autumn was inside, watching TV, wrapped in a cocoon of warm light. Autumn, focused on the TV was oblivious to me viewing the scene. All the elements for a perfect painting… I depicted all of the exterior elements with cool colors creating a textural carpet for the exterior facade that appeared flat. The cedar shakes, typical of homes on the Cape, provided a perfect texture for the wall.Â](https://i0.wp.com/ziembo.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Featured-Image-Autumn-TV.jpg?fit=533%2C533&ssl=1)
