The boys in my painting. "Dominoes," are passing the time away on a warm summer day. Before the day is over, they will probably play a little ball and maybe even go for a swim. When thinking back to my childhood, my best memories are of the friendship and companionship of my brother, Clayne, and of the old gang.

Friends sometimes drift apart as time goes by, but memories stay with us always. Memories themselves can be like old friends - old friends that we can visit anytime, no matter how far apart we are.
