Artistic talents of Ruth Autry Brooks
My paternal grandmother, known to me as Nanya, was an accomplished artist. Sadly, this talent did not pass to me. But I do see it in some of my children. Rosey has quite the flair for drawing. Danielle uses makeup as her paint palette. I have several of her paintings in my home. But I just learned of some other items that my cousin, Mariruth, has in her home. I was surprised at the variety, especially the casserole dish. These are pictures that she recently took. I'll put up the ones from my home soon! These were done early in the 20th century. The dish is dated 1910.
