Pride of Baltimore Painting
For the Pride of Baltimore Builders
 I wanted to share this painting with you and others. The oil painting has a special place over the mantel in our family room. I placed two pictures in my galley of the painting that was painted for me in 1995 by Roger Simmons, a dear friend. Roger is retired now and lives in Ocean Pines, Maryland (near Ocean City), he received his BFA from the National Art Academy in Washington D.C. 45 years ago. At the time of this painting, he was a resident artist  at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. His sea scape paintings have been published in National Geographic and Jans Fighting Ships, several of his paintings can be seen at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis Maryland and in studios on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, the home of his birth. I hope that you enjoy his work.  Charlie

Very nice indeed!! Will be a very, very nice compliment to have your model displayed close to these!! Don't need to be a "Pride of Baltimore" builder to appreciate. Kind Regards, Harry Funnell.

Re: Pride of Baltimore Painting
Very Nice, Indeed!! That ship is what got me interested in finally doing a large wooded ship model, as I was fortunate to be able to visit her 2 years ago at the tall ships show in Bay City. I finally chose to do Niagara, but she will probably be a future project. Thanks for a lovely painting.
 Bob
