It has a thick textured surface I tried to picture from the side view almost foam lake. If you look closely you can see the windows of a train speeding by at night with buildings and powerlines to the background. And it looks to be in a winter heavy snow storm. It is signed and dated to the lower Left.


Born in Sapulpa, Oklahoma in 1919, Gene Bavinger has lived and made art in Oklahoma his entire life except for a short time in California and New York City and graduate studies in Oklahoma.

He taught painting, drawing and design for the next thirty-three years until he retired in 1980.
