About the Cover: Fall Colors on the River, oil
on canvas by Jerry Spangler Having grown up in a family with artistic
interests, Jerry Spangler planned to have a career in commercial art when
he came out of the Navy in 1964. Those plans were foiled and in 1994,
Jerry finally picked up his paint brush again and rediscovered his old
flame. Combining his love and appreciation of outdoor scenery with his
talent with a paint-brush, Jerry began painting with acrylics.
This painting is of a house in White Stone that’s behind Robbins
Boatyard. “I liked the fall colors and the boat docked in front
of the house. I participate in local art shows, I’ll be at the Irvington
Farmers Market each month till December, Holly Point Seafood Fest in October.”
He is the first artist ever from this area to be the featured artist at
the Norfolk Harborfest for 2008. Jerry’s paintings can be seen at
the Studio Gallery of the Rappahannock Art League in Kilmarnock and Liberty
at Compass Quay, Urbanna. His website is www.jerryspangler.com
