Love this painting - love the textures, the colors, and the subject. My parents, grandparents, and greatgrandparents on both sides spent a couple of generations in Pasadena. When my dad recently saw this painting, he told me his aunt (crazy hoarder aunt) lived at Castle Green until she died many years ago. My grandmother apparently has interesting stories of cleaning out her apartment there. An old building like this has so many stories, and you just never know how many of them might be personal to you.
