    I just wanted to share this painting that I've had for a few years.

    It was in a group of framed art, purchased in a thrift store for a few dollars, by a friend who thought it was ugly. This friend gave me the whole group of art and this was in it. 12"x18", oil on Crescent board.
    When I researched the artists name, I nearly fell off my chair.

    The artist is Henry Lawrence Faulkner, 1924-1981, a well known Kentucky painter.
    The good stuff is out there!

    It really stood out among the other stuff, which was mostly cheap prints and framed posters.
    I love it, too!

    That's very nice. Love the proportion. (Tall and narrow.)
