July 19th, 2007 – Bobbi and Paul MacMurray!

I hadn’t seen Bobbi and Paul MacMurray in many, many years. I used to work with Bobbi at Church Street Station in the late eighties. I was drawing caricatures at Church Street in the train depot and Bobbi and Catherine Courtney created portraits outside the Cheyenne Saloon.
I drove out to Goldenrod, in eastern Orange County and met up with fellow artist, Sue McNulty, to visit the MacMurrays.
Bobbi is an outstanding portrait artist who’s eyes after over 80 years have let her down. She still has all of her equipment. The drawing is of her giant easel she used to create so many wonderful paitings and illustrations.
Bobbi’s husband, Paul, has been playing music since a child. Now, at 88, he still plays at local retirement homes. I’m violating my own rules to keep this an illustration only site with this photo of Paul with his electric base. His wife is an artist. Close enough!
