Artist's statement: "Yellow Houses on Barnard was among 22 of my paintings exhibited from 1971 to 1973 in former President Jimmy Carter's office in Atlanta. This was another scene I spotted while driving around downtown. While I painted in the front seat, my husband Bill and the dog waited patiently in the back."
