Travis was helping out with Jim Ferguson’s estate. Jim was a local master painter and instructor who specialized in watercolor and passed his knowledge of this medium to many students around here.

Trav stopped by with two paintings. One was a painting from Travis’ past that Jim had bought which featured an image of me with my back to the viewer. The other was a painting from my lamb series that Jim had bought. I had no recollection of either painting.

I would like to pass the lamb painting on to someone who would like to have it. I like the idea of the painting going from Jim’s collection to another’s. I never had a class with Jim, but we had many chats. I was as fond of him as all of his students. I worked as a personal assistant for his partner from 2004-2008.

The blue piece below is acrylic on Yupo paper, 6”x6”, 12”x12” matted and framed and ready to hang. It is a gift. Free shipping, too. I can’t keep it.
