"Shaded Side of the Mountain"  48x48

"Dot- To me, you catch the effect of light coming from the sun through the Mississippi atmosphere – an atmosphere unlike any other I have every lived under, especially in about February – onto the Mississippi landscape.  It is as if you, having lived under it for decades, are imbued with it... 

 To me, one day your work may be compared to Faulkner’s, in that both you and he capture the feeling of north Mississippi and how it seems to affect human beings."

 Letter from H. B. -  August, 2018

"You have captured the 'soul' of country life"    -D. J. Oct 2018

"Often, at some particular hour, a landscape which has struck you at first sight as somewhat ordinary, grows wonderfully poetic, redolent of deep and exquisite calm. You feel it would be good for you to be there, that your soul would be refreshed. The sensation of the gladness of Nature comes over you."
 `Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier
