"Here's to the ages and my place in time."

As a sentimentalist I've always loved photographs from the "old days" gone by. The Victorians, the Edwardians, and the performers of the Silver Screen allured me even as a child. While much is known about Evelyn Nesbit or the Gish sisters, to me there is much more intrigue and tenderness in the photographs without names, or with only a first name written in script. As an acrylic artist I have been collecting these found photos and giving them new life in color.
