Yesteryear South Road 1934

Back when the Town of Westhampton had only what one would now call 

small trucks to plow, many roads drifted in and those trucks were unable to 

get through those wind-packed roads. 

So, our forefathers took shovel in hand and volunteered to

 open up the roads.  This painting shows who we believe to be Will Fiske, 

Walter Witherill, "Papa" Church, Robert Church, and Mr. Hickey and one unknown.

"Just Saying"

It's hard to get a hard working, handsome man to sit for a

 conversation, never mind to pose for a painting. 

 You just might get a look, such as this one.  Just saying.

A Smile

So, I've been very fortunate to take 2 classes with portrait artist, Paul Leveille.  I can't express how exciting it is to start with a snapshop and then develop a portrait that not only looks like the person but shows that individual's personality.  No names, but I do appreciate this friend sharing his wonderful smile.
