Rural Scene (Acrylic on Canvas)


Really nice bit of Americana / American Gothic here. Legitimate, effort-expended, doing-one’s-best art. We need more like it. As usual, I find myself wondering what the story is here? 1983 is practically an eternity ago in post-SocialMedialandvilleburgshire terms. Who was Hazel Merchant? What has become of her? Why did this painting wind up at VV?

We may never know.
