Paintings of American mountains but in the East, New Hampshire to be exact. Benjamin Champney, artist. Living from 1817 to 1907, he went on a European painting tour with artist friend John Frederick Kensett but seems to have liked painting the White Mountains best.

On a voyage to see how much mileage I can get from the creative ability and eye for images that my family thought was useless. On line art curator, fiction writer and now blogger. Historian's daughter. Follow me . . .even I have no idea where I'm going next.
