"The Second Rock At Alice Keck"
In the current dry conditions of our early summer (little rain since last spring) our Ventura River has gone to the look of a desolated white stone skeleton of it's previous self. I miss it so much that today I painted a reminder of a painting that went to a lady doctor many years ago
When the doctor visited my El Paseo Studio in Santa Barbara, many years ago, she was on her journey to a field assignment in the Sudan, as I recall, and was unable to take a large painting along. She promised to call upon her return. I was impressed.
About three and a half years later, she called, asking whether the painting was still available... and she said "I am on a gurney in preparation to deliver my first baby and my husband said I could have anything. I want my "Rock" painting".
We were both pleased. Elbert
