Thanks Jeff, for my first comment!

You do absolutely beautiful work. I’m so glad to hear that your art is a welcome diversion from health problems. I can really identify, as my husband and I are both on disability due to numerous issues. Don (my hubby) finds his special enjoyment with photography, as I do with painting. He is also very impressed with your work, and offered that if you were to find anything in his site (donlyn62) that you’d be interested in using as subject matter, to go right ahead—he’d be honored!
P. S. If it’s anything like the photo in your profile, the area where you live must be gorgeous!
God bless, and happy painting.

This is the only structure which partly survives, from all of Thomas Hair’s works.
