Though Conway (Faulkner County) artist Lester Gene Hatfield is perhaps best known in some circles for legal actions (which he won) taken against his forty-year accumulation of junk and recycled materials, which he developed into a major piece of yard art, he is also an accomplished artist in several media. Many of his works, including watercolors such as this one executed on one of his many trips to France, are included in private and public art collections worldwide.
