These are scans (from slides) of artworks as they appeared in the show, with gallery lighting. They are not meant to be official artist's slides of these paintings. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram review includes a photo of a painting, The Bridge. Despite what the caption says, that piece was not in the show. Many thanks to David Szafranski of Gray Matters for all his work on this exhibition. And may Perry House, who died in July of 2020, rest in peace. He was a great painter, whose reputation deserves to grow.
