Series Description
From the Series:
The three oil paintings in this series are not dated, but were created during the early 1930s, when Lee studied painting in Woodstock, NY. A friend suggested Lee buy a camera and take photographs to improve his painting technique; Lee did so and quickly became interested in photography. The painting of the man in this series remains unfinished as a result of Lee’s shift in artistic focus.

Farmer and wife near Warner, Oklahoma. This man has obtained a government loan (FSA) in Oklahoma. However, he migrated to Arizona two years ago and spent a good year and a half there doing day labor in the cotton and sugar beet fields. He still has one son in Arizona doing day laborer work. Another son returned home to his family saying he wanted to be with them all and all would fare alike; the close family feeling is evident in this class of people. This man's main complaint was of the poor condition of his house. He said that owners would do nothing to help the farmer; "Why if I want a piece of wire to fix a fence I have to steal it of course. I have not done exactly that yet, but if I knew where there was a piece handy I would.", 1939
