Fourth Annual Great Easter Buffalo Kite Festival
Walter Hook

Watercolor, © 1979
Reproduced by permission of the artist's family.

Artist Walter Hook was famous for his humorous juxtapositions. "Buffalo kite" is another name for a box kite. The kites above these buffalo are not box kites, of course, but ordinary diamond kites.

--Joseph Mussulman
