I like this 1951 winter scene. The 1951 painting was for sale at an estate sale on Sagamore Drive. We managed to look but not buy a thing. Rocco was there from Small World Books. He had scooped up a pile of books of course but when we ran into him in the garage, he was paying $20 for a really short, heavy old wooden rowboat.
Overnight Warren Phillips has one of the best gallery spaces in Rochester. He moved from his longtime frame shop on East Avenue over to the first floor, corner spot at Main and Goodman in the Hungerford Building and Pete Monacelli has the first show in the long front room. The white walls, lights and a beautiful old wood floor there make Pete’s “Searching For Home’ abstracts absolutely sing. Warren keeps regular hours too so you have plenty of time to stop in.

I think this painting could have been by Karl’s dad. He used to dabble in painting. The sale was wild, according to the lady who ran it. Glad you stopped by!
