I live in rural New Brunswick which provides most of the subject matter of my paintings. I have a three-wheeled bicycle with a large basket on the back where I can store my paints, a chair and a table and anything else needed. When I am painting, I am in a world of pure concentration. My goal is to create spontaneous, balanced and authentic works of art with the hope that people who see my art will feel the same kind of pleasure that I do.

William G. Allen (1837-1922), Oil on Board, 16 x 12
Yes, Pat, I'm lucky that my and my husband's mother saved all this information in their Bibles and elsewhere; otherwise, I'm sure I wouldn't have so much documentation. I have many, many photos of people whose names I do not know and I've painted some of these also.
I feel the onus is on me to save as much as I can. I only wish I had started earlier when my older relatives were still alive!

You have such great pictures. Mine only go back to my grand parents.
