Family Paintings

Two of my great grandfathers were painters. I've always loved their work which inspired me to pick up a brush. Many of their paintings and drawings are enjoyed by our family.

George Long (1898 - 1977)

George was an artist and a journalist for the Truth and Sunday Sun. He mainly painted Australian landscapes.
