Norman’s Country Store
“Norman’s Country Store”
Cartersville, Georgia
“Normans”, is a unique country store that I painted in the 1980’s. There was a man who was a sign and antique collector, who had boxes of items just packed away. Deciding to put them on display, where he could show off his collectibles, Norman built a country store behind his home on his property. As you can see in the painting, he had signs all over the building, a gas pump, an old truck and much more.
We went inside to look at his other items, he had collected, and I was amazed to see, that he had everything you would ever need to make that a real store, right down to the cash register and pot belly stove.
I proceeded to take pictures of the inside and outside. Norman decided he wanted me to paint it on canvas, so he commissioned me to paint it.
Sadly to say, several years later, while he and the family were away, I heard that someone stole all the signs off the building and I don’t know what else, but hopefully they found out who it was. At least he has the painting to remember it by.

Fox Theatre Atlanta #1 Singin’ in the Rain
The FOX Theatre
Atlanta, GA
“Singin’ in the Rain”
Located in the middle of Atlanta, Georgia the FOX Theatre, built and opened in 1929, with vaudeville and later cinema, now features Broadway Shows and Theatrical performances. Since the theatre has become an Icon to Atlanta, I felt it necessary to create a painting of the famous FOX.
The original painting was sold at the Yellow Daisy Festival at Stone Mountain Park, just east of Atlanta. The festival is one of the top-rated festivals in the country. Prints of the painting were popular through the years of exhibiting around the country, especially in Georgia. It was one of the first paintings where I highlighted the painting with rain and water reflections at night.
Other Theatres I have painted are: The Palace in South Bend, IN; The Reese in Plymouth, IN; Fox in Detroit, Fox #2 in Atlanta; The Chicago Theatre; The Los Angeles Theatre; Loew’s Theatre in Jersey City, NJ, Warner Theatre, Elkhart and the Lerner Sign in Elkhart, Indiana.

Tilley Park
Tilley Park
Cartersville, Georgia
While watching movies growing up, we see places that are the ideal places to live. Of course, that’s only in the movies. The quaint little towns, with the parks, gazebos and Ferris wheels, rides and such. Well the story of the Tilley Park painting started in 1983, when I was commissioned to paint a painting of a covered bridge in Euharlee, Georgia. In order, to get to the covered bridge, we had to drive through Cartersville, Georgia.
It was a small town and had a railroad depot in the middle, with the Court house on the hill and the stores were situated in a U shape, facing the depot. We passed the square and started up the hill and there it was…Tilley Park.!
We eventually moved there and found out the history of the park. Mr. Tilley owned all the rides and organizations rented the park for fundraisers and such. Little did I know, when I took photos of the park, they had planned on removing the rides the following day. I eventually painted two paintings from the park. The Tilley Family bought several of the paintings.
I painted several Cartersville places, and some really close by, here are the links…
