I'm flattered you think I would appreciate it (and I would), but you should keep it and display it with the oxen. They belong together and are such a wonderful story. Mom inherited the covered wagon Great-grandpa carved, but I don't remember the oxen. I'd love to see a picture!Janet Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396294382570650966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2229381101096636687.post-4464807669383367372008-05-04T07:01:00.000+02:002008-05-04T07:01:00.000+02:00Did you know the smaller version of the LeConte St...Did you know the smaller version of the LeConte Stewart painting is hanging in my mother's house with my name on it (for when she dies - no hurry of course)? Maybe you'd appreciate it more? I get it because I have the oxen great grandpa hand carved with the real horse hair (tail hair) from his horse, Puss; and I believe Puss is the horse shown in the painting.<BR/><BR/>I should send you a picture of the oxen with the horse hair.Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10865483685459947345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2229381101096636687.post-79576565527434597262008-04-29T10:41:00.000+02:002008-04-29T10:41:00.000+02:00Maya: If I even had half of ounce of the creative ...Maya: If I even had half of ounce of the creative intelligence of Andy Warhol, I'd be thrilled! It's a fun feature in Photo Booth, though, that's for sure! As for the painting of my great-grandfather, I never knew him--he died long before I was born--but I love this painting and the story behind it.Janet Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396294382570650966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2229381101096636687.post-38026446897282911232008-04-29T06:25:00.000+02:002008-04-29T06:25:00.000+02:00Channeling Andy eh?

My hair is much longer today and I really need a haircut. Badly. As for the painting of Great-Grandpa, we're all continually in awe that LeConte Stewart painted him. Of course, at the time, it was no big deal, but now...
