18 .Portrait of youngest son William Thomas Huston a.k.a. "Bud" who lived from 1910-1925.
34. Mona Big Canoe
35. Gypsy Girl (a copy of Frans Hals' famous painting The Gipsy Girl which can be seen to the right of it and which was painted in 1629)
Unfortunately it looks like Alex's Gypsy Girl has been in a mud-wrestling match due to the mould that has grown on the painting. This painting
would benefit greatly from a professional restoration. I find that this is one of Alex's more interesting paintings as it shows one of his artistic influences
and that he had some admiration for the Dutch Golden Age portrait artists. Hals was a contemporary of Rembrandt's.
36. Portrait of Josephine (wife of Napoleon).
The story is that Alex used his wife as the model for the body and painted Josephine's head on top.
37. Two Ladies Reading A Letter
(This is said to be a copy of a post-card of the times.)
