I think he painted it in the Everglades and I may have seen it in the show at the Chicago Art Institute in 2008 or maybe a library book. I love his paintings and I named my traveling bear (inspired by Liz Steel and tired of traveling alone) Winslow after the great painter. I try not to call him Winnie. Love your blog and good luck with the new glasses. I developed an epiretinal membrane in my left eye and it scrambles my vision a bit and I often just close it an use the right eye so I have a bit of an idea of how worrying it is to have ones vision messed up. But you have a great attitude and I know you will do well. Hope all is well and easier for you soon. Pat Wafer, Madison, Wi.
