That painting

[Walker]

The watercolor painting has me FLUMMOXED.

In a good way, I hope.
It's very curious.
What do you think the skull and crossbones stop sign means?

Stop hanging on for dear life and let it go.

Stop hanging on for dear life and let it go.

But..."dear life."

I'll contact him and see if he's interested in responding.

In her opening post, kpro didn't identify RussDana by name, but it sure seemed like that's who she was referring to. But it turns out it wasn't. Hard to imagine there were TWO searchers who were friends with Forrest, visited him many times at his home, purchased a number of items from him, and posted here. But when I asked, Russ knew nothing of any Forrest painting.

I think painting the hiding location, or how the scenery looked from there, would be inconsistent with Forrest's stated desire to avoid giving private clues -- particularly to his own family or close friends. Even if such a painting was a romanticized view of the surroundings -- however generic -- it could have run the risk of including elements that ruled out some locations.

Where did my response go?

This is not exactly the drawing on the findsgrave site:

Some details were added in the picture on the findagrave site (text in blue cloud, etc.,.). So, Mr. Spork, are you the author?

Both paintings were released after math or azimuth or something like that.

Thank you.

On the Find a Grave site, it was posted by Landon Adamson as his "scrapbook 199 watercolor"

This photo comes from FF’s scrapbook 199.

To my first reply or my second? I see only your thread starter. I have no idea why people are posting completely unrelated pictures here. Annoying, frankly.

[Zapster]

that was his painting where a bugle blows. i don't think that's the same painting that kpro speaks of though.

Certainly not. It's not even a painting, per se. It's mixed media in 3 quadrants and *possibly* painted stripes in the upper left quadrant. And it's worth pointing out that Forrest might not even be the creator -- he could have just acquired it from someone.

Hi All
I was the one who started the painted pictures post of the place where the Forrest Fenn Tarzan or Bronze box was hidden. I think I posted one of those but I don’t remember for sure. I know I didn’t post the one with the Blaze. I sent them to Forrest around Christmas 2019 and I do have proof. I can show the picture where it was hidden but no one will believe it or understand it.

Try us!

P.S. This doesn't have to do with that crazy eight scream picture, does it?

No, wasn’t I.

i agree with you for sure. some ppl think differently though.
