Adam F. Davidson's Open House

 It is always revealing to see from whence a person comes. Visiting abstract painter, Adam F. Davidson in his 16th floor apartment cum studio with paint splattered on the walls and floor showed his exuberant talent to good effect.


The other resident, a black cat, very much an artist's familiar, may not have appreciated having her space invaded by a variety of people, one who brought a dog, but those who came to see 70-some paintings and drawings were enchanted.
