Then again, North Augusta police chief Lee Wetherington has hired Travelers to pave his driveway and paint his house. "They did an outstanding job," he says. Locals call them Gypsies and whisper about their dirty deals. But, says Penn, "we don't put our old folks in rest homes. We don't have as many divorces.

In an untitled work from 2000, Ellis plays with the colors and repetitive rectangles iconic of Piet Mondrian. Strict, opaque rectangles become wavy, transparent lines, black shows through beneath white, and the canvas retains brush strokes, paint drips and slips of the palette knife as a residue of the artist?...
