*watching the ghost's of his departed friends; a series of portraits of artist's friends painted between 1960 and 1980, as per request of some of my flickr. friends.

p.s. these are not in their natural colors for they were taken with 8mm film which has discolored somewhat over the years. I am not numbering them, for they count in the hundreds and will post them when time permits it adding them to this set.
