Me Thinks

 

Aren't these paintings lovely? They are pieces from the collection of Granville Redmond, an American landscape painter. Granville lived from 1871-1935. After contracting scarlet fever as a young child, he was left deaf. A close friend of Granville Redmond once said of him: 

"Sometimes I think that the silence in which he lives has developed in him some sense, some great capacity for happiness in which we others are lacking. He paints solitude as no one else can convey it, and yet, by some strange paradox, his solitude is never loneliness."
