Alabama NewsCenter — A river runs through Alabama artist Frances Tate’s paintings

By: Alabama News Center Staff

Time has been compared to a river – flowing in one direction with little interest in remaining in one place or going back.

The water and pigments combine to produce paintings that serve as historic records for homes and buildings in her community, the Decatur Old Town Historic District.
