Virginia Remington Rich

In honor of Way Back Wednesday I thought I would share these local history sketches that recently came my way.  All are by Slingerlands artist Virginia Remington Rich.  I have not been able to find out much about her except that she was active in art circles in town in the 1970s, 80s and 90s.  And that she is a descendant of the slightly more famous artist Frederick Remington.

Enjoy!





And now for head tilting time... I thought I had this issue solved, sigh.

    I just came across 3 cards I had of these sketches from the 1970's. I framed them as I love them so much because they remind me of my growing up years in Delmar NY

    My rail fan grandson was given a locomotive sketch with V. Remington Rich along the rail. Nice to find out something about her.
