Quintanilla Photographs

This homemade, cardboard sign was attached to a corner of the wooden bin my father constructed and used in his New York studio to store his oil paintings. The quote from Rabelais is, of course, bogus. The sign was merely intended to keep visitors from freely picking through the paintings, which irritated my father.

Be assured, though, that this "Stay Away" sign doesn't apply to visitors to this site. There is, I believe, a wealth of art work here, all of it neglected and much has never been displayed before.
