I remember going to her home in Chatham as a child and being mesmerized by the dolls in glass boxes. Is there any way to find out about her son Mickey's paintings? His work was as fine as his mother's and was a powerful influence for me as an artist as well.Mary Wilshire Magnussonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18277285.post-76491183376794790582014-02-12T08:03:31.961-08:002014-02-12T08:03:31.961-08:00My grandmother was Alice Wells, her daughter was m...My grandmother was Alice Wells, her daughter was my mother Eleanor. Dorothy made dolls of my mother and her twin Barbara because the families were so close at one time. Both my mother and her twin have been gone many many years, but I would give anything to know how to find some of Dorothy's son Mickey's work. Mickey Heizer was an extraordinary painter and there a few pieces of his work which are treasured in my family. My father gave away or sold several paintings after my mother's death which Mickey had given to her. If anyone has any information about a connection to Mickey's paintings I would be eternally grateful.Mary Wilshire Magnussonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18277285.post-5642789193721341622014-02-12T08:02:25.537-08:002014-02-12T08:02:25.537-08:00My grandmother was Alice Wells, her daughter was m...My grandmother was Alice Wells, her daughter was my mother Eleanor.
