IC: Ch 4b. Art Association -- Alyssa, Aunt Loosa & Charles
Location: Art Association - Main Street
Date: August 12, 1921. 3:00 PM
The building is new with a new looking sign on it. When you walk in, the room has dozens of paintings hanging on the wall. There is a man in his mid 40's sitting behind a desk at the back of the room. There is also a door on the back wall, and several chairs around the room, obviously intended for you to sit and look at the paintings.
The gentleman lifts his head as you walk in. He smiles and stands up. "Welcome to the Rockport Art Association."

"Lovely afternoon," acclimatizing herself to all the colours and rich air of culture, Alyssa walks through the door with eager excitement. "How are you today?" Alyssa addresses the gentleman.
The other children cheered him on. His name voiced in a steadily rising pace, urging him to do it. “Am I really doing this?”, the young boy thought and struck his victim with a rock.
Re: IC: Ch 4b. Art Association -- Alyssa, Aunt Loosa & Charl
"I am doing very well today, miss. Is there anything I can help you with today?" he says.

Alyssa shakes her head, "I think we'll be fine, we'll let you know if we need anything sir." Alyssa gestures towards the exhibits ahead, "may we help ourselves?"

"Just let me know if you need anything, please feel free to look around." he says.
The room is just one large square room with paintings covering about 90% of the walls. Many are of the red building on the wharf, but there is a good number of ships, the two lighthouses, the sea shore, etc...
At the back side of the room is one corner where the paintings get far darker, and have a much more sinister subject matter.

Charles: "Maybe we should take a look at the signings here and then continue down the lane of paintings? What do you think?"
Re: IC: Ch 4b. Art Association -- Alyssa, Aunt Loosa & Charl
If you are looking for a matching signature, make a spot hidden roll.
If you are doing something else, let me know.

"That seems the appropriate approach," Alyssa's eyes wonder along the wall in feign interest. She wasn't quite sure what the big picture was, and how it'll frame itself into, but Alyssa was quite driven to get to the bottom of it.

Re: IC: Ch 4b. Art Association -- Alyssa, Aunt Loosa & Charl
Alyssa finds several paintings by the same artist. About half of them are of the Red building, the other half are a mixture of the coast, boats and the 2 light houses.

Squinting her eyes closely at the picture Alyssa makes an effort reading the signature. She felt like old age was catching up to her like Aunt Loosa despite her youth, trying to figure who the artist is.

It looks very much like the signature at the Woods House. The main initials and nothing else.

"Excuse me for a moment," Alyssa makes her way back to the curator attending the front desk. "Sorry to trouble you, you have a moment to spare?" Alyssa points toward the pictures of interest, "I must ask, whose initials are H and S? Spoil me the surprise please." Playfully smiling, Alyssa leans on the counter in eager prospect, her reporter instincts sparked fresh adventure back into her eyes.

Aunt Loosa slowly walks around the gallery, examining the paintings by the the artist they are interested in. In particular she looks to see if there is something in common between all of them - not just the red building but maybe something that appears in all of them, in the background perhaps. Are the pictures of the red building all from the same aspect?
As she hears Alyssa asks her question to the curator, she watches him and gauges to gauge his reaction.

The man behind the desk looks up, "that would be Howard. He does some good work, you have a good eye for art. He is fast too, produces at a painting every day."

Aunt Loosa takes a pad from her bag and stub of pencil and quickly sketches the constellation.
Aunt Loosa thinking: That doesn't look like anything I've ever seen in the night sky, maybe one of the others will recognise it. |
Re: IC: Ch 4b. Art Association -- Alyssa, Aunt Loosa & Charl
Charles turn to the man behind the desk. "What a talent to paint so good work that fast. Do he paint alot of different motives aswell? Is he an employe here or an artist fulltime?"
Re: IC: Ch 4b. Art Association -- Alyssa, Aunt Loosa & Charl
"He is a talent. He showed up a couple weeks ago and started painting. I sell his paintings on commission. Good enought kid. He is probably down at the Bearskin now. I've been letting him crash here at night." he says.
