It's Been a LONG Time Coming ... But I'm Back!


John T. Alsop Bridge, Jacksonville, FL
better know as MAIN STREET BRIDGE
6" by 8" acrylic on canvas board
painted for my oldest friend, Dottie's book!

back and front cover of:
Remembering Jacksonville
a collection of local lore taken from:
The Florida Times-Union column:
By the Wayside by Dorothy K. Fletcher

This is the book I've mentioned in my most recent posts. Please go to Amazon.com to see the book - and buy it, too!

Dottie, I'm so proud of you and so honored that you choose me to paint the cover! Who would have ever thought in 1959 when we met, that 51 years later this would happen? OMG! Thank you also for your generous payment I received "for this honor"! The painting is my gift to you as congratulations for your 4th publication. Well done!
