Florence
Laikind Nelson -- Drawings
J.
I. Nelson, 2008
Unmounted,
mostly 24 x 18".
There
are errors of proportion in these student drawings, but it's
fun to look beyond them and see what the artist saw. Charcoal in hand, Mom actually could decide when putting lines on paper that
could not be erased or painted over later.

Alert - Portrait (10x8 in)
My
mother painted many figures -- a family having fun at the pool, people
in a museum, groups of women touring and tramping in exotic places,
women looking glamorous. This is the only work which resolves
the attention of the other person, the only image of a person who
clearly has thoughts and purposes separate from the artist who created
the image.
