    Deborah , please keep “PORCHSCENE: Exploring Southern Culture” ‘acoming’. Always enjoy the articles. May not comment often, but know they are appreciated! After laying off painting for 8 years, I’m trying to rekindle the spirit and effort. When asked why I started painting, it’s easy! Norma gave me a class studying with you! 🙂

    lf Flannery O’Conner were a goddess, I could be tempted to change religions.

    P.S. Fab Foto, Deb!
