The Ghost of E.A. Autrey

In my kitchen window hangs a stained glass portrait of a rooster, made by my father, the late, great, E.A. Autrey.  In the evening, the sun hits it in such a way that it casts a beautiful colored shadow over my cast iron painted frog.  Perhaps it is E.A.'s colorful spirit come to say good evening.

Tree Frog

Voices

An owl, a cardinal and a frog all raising their voices and singing their songs. Perhaps they are remembering a time years ago when there were fewer houses with fewer people living in them behaving badly. For Illustration Friday's word "voices." B&W photograph taken by E.A. Autrey in Santa Barbara years ago.
