Faulkner in Ochre

     I have tentatively named this picture "William Faulkner," but I am also considering "Light in August," from one of his novels, and I think one of the greatest novels in all American Literature, or in all literature of any origin, for that matter. But I think I might rather save that title for another picture. Any suggestions?
  

     The color is much more vibrant than what my scanner has captured. The painting is from a photograph that I liberated from the Internet. I would prefer not to crib from other people's work, but Faulkner's dead, so my own photo of him is probably out of the question.
