HARRY BENNETT'S PAINTINGS


A reader sent in photos of paintings he owns that were painted by Harry Bennett after he left Michigan and moved to the desert near Desert Hot Springs. They were painted in the 1950s and the reader went to school with one of Harry's daughters...


The mountain painting is of Mt San Jacinto
