Having had many of my 10 daughters and 2 sons most of them college grads,4 to
7 years;who qualify as "generation 'X'rs;now live in luxurious homes in
luxurious
very costly places.These Generation 'X'ers love to dectorate thier
homes--dining
rooms-huge cathedral entrances with orginal oil paintings.

When I turned 80 years of age I began to let them select with very little
restrictions
thier choices of my vast hundreds of original oil paintings.I have had my share
of TV
and newspaper artists fame over the years.I also painted/wrote a book, one my
water color efforts,of my childhood memories for the Chamber of Commerce in my
birth place home town titled -"Childhood Revisited"--one of the pictures of my
paint-
ing of my mother baking bread/along with a story, was authorized by me to be
included in my hometown history.

What I bought this second Hewlett-Packard Home Edition Computer-Hp 750
printer-scanner-copier and put it on a seperate phone line for was to build a
website.to achieve a very important personal goal.With a web site of course to
do it with.

I was greatly pleased many years ago to be voted into the West Virgina
University
Creative Art Center by its then board of acceptance;where I have 8 paintings on
permanent file.I have paintings in four foreign countries and in places of
viewing in this country.I am not a "Harry Homeowner" hobbyist artist.I am a
very dedicated
"Fine Arts" Creative artist,in the centuries old traditions.(as if you can't
understand it within reason it aint fine art) .

In short I am not a soup can "Pop Artist"?? Or a Picasso-Chigal childish
garbage artist--nor a Salvador Dali telephones and ears artist People who work
at the local
VA hospital where I go for checkups,claim that I am going to make that hospital
famous one day...

One of my most loved works is a painted book of 34 paintings titled the"
American Dream." It starts in 1926--up into post WW 2 years.-It's a boll weavil
looking for a permanent viewing home.
