I'd like to give a special thanks to Dr. Joe Allen Rice (Doc Rice) from the Sam Houston Chapter of the Sons of the Republic for including my painting of the Sam Houston statue at Huntsville in the March issue of The Raven newsletter.  Doc stumbled upon my painting online and thought it'd be perfect to commemorate the birth month of Sam Houston.  Members of the Sons of the Republic of Texas are direct descendants of the early Texas settlers before the Lone Star State became part of the USA.  The SRT helps keep the memory and spirit of the men and women who helped Texas achieve independence alive.  It's an honor to have my painting included in their publication.  If you'd like more information about The Sons of the Republic of Texas or are interested in seeing the newsletter you can drop Doc an email at proceduredoc@gmail.com.

P.S. The painting of Sam Houston is still looking for a good home :)

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

  #mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study.  We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that.  I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it.  I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas.  Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available  GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website

Central Fire Station Lake Charles, La Barbara Haviland

  CENTRAL FIRE STATION LAKE CHARLES, LA #CentralFireStation,#HIstoric,#Building,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com Central Fire Station  no longer exists in  Lake Charles, La.  I had some old photos that I used to paint this painting.   24"x40"  and it is signed and framed, but you must come pick it up. I was told that the station burned down and they built another.
 I haven’t posted here in a long time, partly because my artistic endeavors have taken a turn toward quilting instead of painting.   But this quilt started as a painting which I had printed on fabric and then turned it into a quilt.  So maybe I can slip it into the blog!  If you are interested in seeing more, let me know!
