Ruth Gaynor “Mountain View”

Another painting in the Ruth Gaynor series by my late grandmother. I am naming this painting “Mountain View” however I wish I knew what she would have called each of these paintings. Why is it that looking back on your time with someone, that all these questions about them and what they did spring up?

The names of my paintings are in my mind just as important as the painting itself, I am working on a way to brand the name of the painting into the back of each one. I always want people to know the name and where the painting originated from.

Artist in the past have all seemed to just paint and let history fall where it may and never seemed to concern themselves with their works legacy. I think more artist in our decade understand the importance of keeping good records about each of their paintings.

I know where every painting that I have ever sold currently is, and who owns it. If your not keeping these records, then you are doing your legacy a dis-service.
