Eric and Jonathan have explained the reference, but I will expound a little
further. I try and create turn of the century period buildings that look as
"realistic" as possible, and one of the main ways one can accomplish this is to
avoid building in primary colors, but instead use the earth tones. Jonathan
has taken a similar approach to his buildings and so we are kindred spirits of
a sort as were the group of painters known as the Ashcan school.

| (...) Indeed. Thanks for the extra info guys! (and Eric, I did go look at that site. Many of the paintings didn't come up but the ones that did, made the point nicely, thanks for the link!)... I would agree that earthtones are the colors of reality. (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.town)
