Great Grandfather Weaver

"Great Grandfather Weaver", acrylic on canvas, 16"x20", 5/30/96. This was painted for my Great Grandmother's 90th birthday in 1996. It is a portrait of my Great Grandfather Weaver. He was a true "character" and a wonderful man. I am the only one of my siblings who is lucky enough to remember him. He died when I was very young.

I'm very glad I met your dad and you here on this site and to see you honor your grandfather that's an amazing painting.

Another amazing piece, Nessa K. Grandaddy was a special person also and it is seen in this portrait. You are an amazing artist-like your Dad. Love you.

This an awesome portrait Nessa. He always had the look of Humphrey Bogart when he was young to me. You have captured some of the "Weaver" spirit in this great painting. Your work makes me soooooooooooooo proud! Dadio
