With the help of Gayle Peterson Steele we are in the process of receiving the photographs of ETP's paintings from the H Burke Peterson family. Thank you Uncle Burke for your information on several of the paintings. It is so fun to know the stories behind them.
ROBIN PETERSON PEDERSEN Collection of ETP paintings:
Painting of Uncle Burke as a baby. Painted from a photograph in Uncle Burke's home.
This landscape hung in Uncle Burke's office at the Church Office building from 1972-1993.
The Wine Picure: In the late 1980's Evan had all of Uncle Burke's daughters choose a painting. Robin chose this one.JANA PETERSON STAPLES Collection of ETP Paintings:
Jana Peterson Staples has this painting of Salzburg, Austria. She loves having it in her home and has visited this square which Evan captured and calls it a charming place. I agree Jana.
GAYLE PETERSON STEELE Collection of ETP Paintings:
Gayle and Bill Steele have this painting of Burke and Evan riding "Baldy", Harold's old horse, in Scipio, UT. The boys rode the horse to take the cows to the field.
Bill and Gayle Steele have this Still Life painted in 1951. It hung in three of Juna Tye's homes. Gayle grew up seeing this painting and it brings fond memories.
SHERRIE PETERSON DECKER Collection of ETP Paintings:
Beloved Sherrie Peterson Decker had this one of Monument Valley in her home in Mesa. It is now in her sister Gayle P Steele's home.
H BURKE AND BROOKIE PETERSON Collection of ETP Paintings:
Uncle Burke and Aunt Brookie have this one and only painting of Evan's. As teenagers Burke and Evan worked on it's construction. The church building is located on East Ashland, east of Central Avenue, south of Encanto and was a 10 minute walk from their home.
Notes from Uncle John: The painting that Burke had of the old Phoenix Third Ward building wasn't finished by Evan. David Ragar finished it with some coaching by me as to what it looked like way back when.
