This painting is somewhere out in the world, yet I am not able to locate
"Lady Slipper." This is because I gave the painting to a friend with whom I
used to work in Newtown, Connecticut in 1974.  Brian Bonfietti (its owner)
got married and this was my wedding gift to him and his wife.  We used to
work together at Lexington Gardens in Newtown, CT and I was his assistant. 
"Lady Slipper" was one of my earliest pieces -- an oil painting on cotton
canvas.  Possibly some day, I will locate it and provide more images here. It
is unlike my other pieces, but I like it.  People have enjoyed matted prints
and note cards (now) of "Lady Slipper." As an incentive, I have decided (now
on 7/17/02) to give a cash prize of $100.00 to anyone who can locate this
painting given only this information.  Possibly the search could begin by way
of the main office in Lexington Massachusetts.  Two other names of people who
used to work in CT are Jeff Moore and the [then] manager Tom Johnson.  Each
person may know where Brian Bonfietti might be today provided THEY can be
contacted as well.

[Note: 5/9/2015 - The outcome of the above "search" in 2002 yielded no result
other than a discovery about the marriage.  Brian's wife WAS located via a
phone call, but no messages were returned which seemed to indicate the
painting had been "lost" or that something had happened between them to cause
this outcome.]
