My father spent much of the later years of his life expressing his feelings through drawing. Here are some my favorites.
My father eschewed modern conveniences, and he never owned a power tool. He wasn't into polished metal either, and let nature take its course on everything he owned. Naturally, in their weather-beaten state his tools were perfect to photograph, and a good friend of mine did the honors with his large format film camera.

My father, Samuel Wray passed away September 1, 2007. He was 86. My mother, Ellie, cared for him full-time for the last four years of his life. She is proud of his talent, and would love to share it with the world.
