If you would like me to display a photo of your painting on the website with the portrait, you can send me one via the email address on my profile.Don Sheltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01981381449429373197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6282005678773288929.post-22692374180164844642012-06-10T13:16:22.149-07:002012-06-10T13:16:22.149-07:00I am totally fasinated by this image.

The painting I have is of a bowl of peaches..very realistic..My mother told me that the her mother said Edgar came to visit her she would have been his 1st cousin. She had just picked the peaches and he sat at the table and did the painting. I have searched and searched for more information about him and I am beyond thrilled to actually see what may be his face.. Thank you for posting this blog. I would happily send you a photo of my painting if you would like. We also have one of a vase of flowers that was passed down to my nephew.guesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01156306795279599884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6282005678773288929.post-22479247981942996932012-06-10T12:06:43.996-07:002012-06-10T12:06:43.996-07:00Edgar Dennis is one on my descendants.
