"The Keck Homeplace"
Watercolor  11" x 17"

A gift to 'Keck'

I did a large watercolor of my boyhood friend's home place.  He's kept it for quite a few years now just as his parents left it.  A typical Craftsman house, owner built.  Howard had a rule for his boys.   If they went to play in the crawl space they had to bring up a bucket of dirt.  It took a while but in this way a root cellar was dug by three boys and their friends.
