so, i bought this painting on ebay. [View all]

i have made a couple posts about ruth van sickle ford.
she and i grew up in the same house. we never met, but she had a big impact on my life.
i have been collecting her paintings. i have 8 of her water colors, now finally an oil.
this is from early in her career, and i unusual in that it is pretty dark. her work is usually full of light and color. likely why i was the only bidder.
but i am esp pleased to score one that is not like her other work.
