Our family bookclub book this past month was "I Capture the Castle" by Dodie Smith, which was introduced to us by my niece Autumn. A line in the book (which I loved, by the way) on page 152 was this; "If I were a painter I believe I'd always paint windows." A year or so ago I went to a "starving artist" art sale in Boise. There I bought four paintings I assume were all done by the same "starving" artist; who I believe had read this book, or at least agreed with the character, Simon. My only regret is that the artist didn't sign his/her work.
