Insider573 magazine is the best read, best supporter and best thing that has happened to the area in which we live. So, unexpectedly being selected by them as this year's Person of the Year, I am greatly honored. Thank you, Insider573, for all that you do for us.

The Open Door

This is an 11" x 14" oil painting on canvas board of a picture I took in late summer from the "summer house" of local artist Lulu Cameron located behind her building at the corner of S. Main and Washington Streets. The building you can see in the background is the rear of the Main Street Inn. $185 unframed.
