I was deeply saddened by the news last night that we have lost a fellow artist and friend. Mr. Gary Walters, has made the transition to a heaven more beautiful than anything he could have ever dreamt of painting, though by looking at his incredible art, I believe he had already tried. To hear him talk of his life and times throughout Mississippi and his endless admiration of his beautiful wife, Joan, I’m certain he saw heaven on earth on a daily basis. I feel so honored to have had the privilege of carrying his beautiful artwork, and sharing his vision of the delta landscapes with you all, over the past few years. His jovial nature, unique humor, tremendous talent, and caring heart will surely be missed by many, but certainly lives on through the love he poured into his vibrant artwork, and through all those who had the pleasure of knowing him. I’ll never drive past a cotton field again and not think about his beautiful watercolors and the soul that created them. My love and prayers go out to Joan and to all his family and friends.
Rest well my friend. 👨🏻🎨❤️
