Artist and Prolific Journal keeper

Salem    August 17, 1916
"A wonderful phenomenon at dawn – a huge flock of blackbirds had settled in the trees below here and filled the air with constant calls -  finally those in the first tree flew up -  a hundred twinkling spots against the rainbow sky."
 ~ Charles E. Burchfield

From Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, Vol. 27A
 Beginning as a teenager and continuing until his death in 1967 Charles Burchfield kept journals which illustrate his thoughts, experiences, and growth as an artist. They have been compiled for you to read at the website of Burchfield Penney Art Center at SUNY Buffalo State.
