JOHN D. MORSE: What books do you like to read -- what kind of books? Maybe a better way to ask it is, what books do you find yourself re-reading?
CHARLES E. BURCHFIELD: Well, now, I like certain books of Knute Hamsun: The Growth of the Soil, of course, and the Segelfoss Town, and The Children of the Age. I have read those so often that I almost feel as though I'd lived in that place, that's Segelfoss.
JOHN D. MORSE: Mmhmm.

These fluid watercolors of Burchfield are a rich goldmine to gather ideas and concepts. His sense of design and use of color is outstanding!!
