Hi Sharon
You 're so nice!!!
I know him very well.Once I made a copy of his painting and I 'll send it to you in the future.I got many books about American Impressionism. One of my favorite landscape painters is Willard Metcalf, but I like Robinson, Twatchman ,Hassm,Chase too.
They all don't paint "alla prima" and some of them (Robinson and Benson)helped themselves by using photographs.. In Italy there was a movement called "divisionismo", that means that the painter used little complementary strokes to make a texture obtained by scratching the surface after painting . Some of the painters were Segantini,Pellizza da Volpedo,Previati , Morbelli. Now the best impressionist master I now leaves in Milano . I 've got two books of his and tomorrow I'll send the photos to you.
Ciao
Adriano
