Perry Brooks Nichols

It was the coldest night I remember this late in April, but the flowers are still in bloomin. Inspiring colors this sunset.

Portrait of Christopher Nichols & Jodi Lawrence - front & verso - graphite & conte crayon by Mary Nell Brooks Nichols (1912-1975). My grandmother, Mary Nell, was a talented portraitist as well as a graphic designer. In this double-sided portrait of my father & 2nd cousin, her masterful skills of observation are on full display.
