Grammy's Pictures: (42) Man and Woman

This painting was for years in the Green Valley home of mother's friend Blanche. It was returned to the family when Blanche died, a will directive. 


Mother spread her paintings far and wide. They were given to friends and family, given to those who did her favors or admired her art work.  She gave to bank tellers and clerks, to nuns and priests, gave willingly with love.

Her goal was that every grandchild have a painting, a goal she far surpassed. Who can count the paintings or measure the pleasure they gave and keep on giving.

Grammy's Pictures: (41) Riders


This painting of what looks like a cattle drive belongs to Tim.


I have no information on this picture at all.

And there was at least one other picture along this theme
Western Arizona Roundup 24x18 sold (this may be the picture that Tim saw in a gallery)

Grammy's Pictures: (40) Fisherman's Wharf Maine


I think there were two pictures of Fisherman's Wharf in Maine.  This on had a price of $400 on it and appears to be owned by someone in the family.    

In the notes from another show in Tubac, there is a listing for Fisherman's Wharf in Maine and a note that it was sold to Dolores Krebes for $85.  That painting was supposedly 19 x 15 inches, this one appears to be more of a square although I don't have a size noted.

Grammy's Pictures: (39) Fishermen in the Fog


"This painting of fishermen and their boats in the fog is one of my favorites. I love it's misty softness, the rolling clouds, the mystical feel of it.  It was my special choice, and I've passed it on to Patrick."  Jean English Madden
