Chuck Wells said...: I may not have been able to identify this artist by name, if asked, but I have always loved his work.

The fifth one from the top is a personal favorite. My parents have had a framed print of this hanging in their home for years.; 2:16 PM

Pat Rik said...: Great !
But, it seems that his wife was his only model…
