...with the Old Chatham Hunt Club, has been kept at his painting by his wife, Georgia, despite the acquisition of a fine white Irish hunter. Last week the Rehn Galleries hung a fresh collection of Carroll's diaphanous, warm, pink nudes, glinting pickaninny-like Negresses, superbly deft drawings. Done with less delicacy and more fire than usual were Blacksmith, a composition reminiscent of Franklin Watkins, and Deep Down Blue, a black girl rolling her eyeballs in a voodoo dance.
