Once upon a Time in Dallas: Through the Artists Eyes
by Pat W. Kochan
Category: Art

The artist, Pat Wheelis Kocha is a native of Dallas, whose love for this city is nurtured by her fond childhood memories of a time when people went "downtown" for shopping, doctors' appointments, dance classes and entertainment. Included in this series are nostalgic paintings of buildings that were a major influence on the people of Dallas. Some of the buildings no longer exist. Some have been saved, thanks to preservationists. "Paint who you are....I am a city girl so I paint the city and it's people." This beautiful "coffee table book" which is a work of art in itself, will make a perfect gift for those who remember Dallas when it was like a little New York City in the 1940s and 1950s and for those new to Dallas who would like to know what it was like in that era. This is a one-of-a-kind book to be cherished.
