American Winter Forest Watercolor Painting in Gilt Frame Signed G. Carpenter
Located in Dallas, TX
Set inside a carved gilt framed behind protective glass, this watercolor on paper painting was created circa 1970 and signed in the lower right corner by the artist, George Carpenter.

Born on December 13, 1928 in Boston, Massachusetts, George was the son of George Gillis and Daisy Winifred Carpenter.
