HUFFSTUTTER ORIGINAL FOUND IN GEORGIA BY ANOTHER FLICKR MEMBER

On 31 October 2008, I received an Email with the above photo as an attachement. Text requested information about the painting. Individual stated painting was for sale in a local Good Will or Salvation Army thrift store. Individual stated he had purchased painting. Was it mine? I was shocked. The painting was signed by me and dated 1965. I did some research and verified my signature. Yes, it's one of mine; I faintly recall doing it for a friend who needed some art for new apartment. It was an odd and somewhat rare reunion with one of my works.

About Me

My photo
My dad's dad, my grandfather, was nine years old when President Lincoln died from an assassin's bullet. Most people think I am speaking of my GREAT GRANDFATHER. NO, I am referring to my dad's father, my paternal Grandfather, Robert Levi Huffstutter, born in 1856. What does this information have to do with my profile? It might help the reader understand that I have a sense of being much older than I am in that only one generation seperates me from President Lincoln. This causes me to respond differently to society and many current events. In many respects, this is to my benefit, in other respects it dates my mindset. Perhaps this is the reason I value the moral standards and idealogies of older Americans, the men who were the soldiers and sailors I saw when I was a small boy,the men and women who fought a war for freedom without any doubts posted by a media with a questionable lack of national unity and purpose.
