Note:

Commissioned as part of the California Compositions initiative, Night Thoughts honors Sacramento native and internationally known artist Wayne Thiebaud. "I am very pleased by the idea that I am part of a celebration of Mr. Thiebaud's extraordinary artistry. He is certainly a major voice in American contemporary painting and I admire him boundlessly."
