In this, a year of reunions, I devoted more time to learning my family’s history than I did to printmaking. My Great Grandmother Jenny Davis, right, is often credited in my family for having passed artistic creativity to us. Her husband Winfred was a cowboy and trapper, leaving Jennie home much of the time to fend for herself. She traded oil paintings for groceries, raising five kids at the same time. Family research disclosed that she was inspired by Charley Russell, and also that Winfred was one of Russell’s friends. Winfred tried his hand at painting, too. I inserted my "dreamer" profile between them in this composition, and a pine bough--representing Montana, their home.
