The city had placed a partial stop-work order on the nearly com- pleted project until changes in the plans could be reviewed iff by the city's Historic Preservation Committee and ap- proved by the council. Florence Young, one of the owners of the property, told the council March 3 that both the interior and the exterior plans had been submitted to the Planning Department and that she had unknowingly agreed to the terms in the con- tract without realizing that reference to the interior was in- cluded. She wanted the word "interior" deleted because it had never been her intent to restore the interior of the his- toric home. She said no expense was being spared to accu- rately restore the exterior. Her claims were supported by Sam Bailey, chairman of the Historic Preservation Committee, who told the coun- cil that in all the meetings of the committee the interior had never even been discussed. The object all along was to restore the exterior only. He said the committee is very pleased with the way the project is progressing. Bailey said the main problem the committee had was agreeing on exactly what time period the restoration Gray Gables, the Nutt Family Homestead, used to face the beach and was hidden from view. should depict to make it historically accurate, especially Now the historic home is being meticulously restored and Is visible to passers-by at its new when the house had been altered so many times.

This extremely talented gentleman has just won the coveted Western Heritage Book Award for his illustrations For the children's book "Monster Slayer." The legend was retold by Wee Browne. This prestigious award is given to the Outstanding Art Book by the National Cowboy Hall of Fame. It entitles the book to bear a gold seal of honor granted by the Oklahoma City museum. Baje was born on the Navajo reservation land in Arizona in a small area called Peaches. 'There is no need to look for it on a map," said Baje. "It is simply not there. The name comes from land that contained a small orchard owned by my great, great, great grandparents." The journey from the Navajo reservation to where this well-recognized artists is today, was not all, as the saying goes, peaches and cream. His beginnings were not necessarily peachy and it has taken a lot of hard work, personal discipline and family guidance to Baje Whitethorne, tefffialks with Elizabeth and Robert^Rose at the artist's opening at the Baje come^lrom¥Targe family: two older brothers, Sagebrush Gallery. two younger brothers and four sisters.

Baje says of his trademark, a small folding chair, "I remember my parents bringing home a new card table with four metallic blue chairs. As a boy, in the summer I would put my face on the seats because they were so cool. I started to include the chair in my paintings because that's what I remembered. People always want to be able to find that chair. It draws them into the painting as they search for it." There is an exhibition called "A Separate Vision" that began its life at the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff in 1990. Baje is one of the four featured Whitethorne's "Song artists. This multifaceted project was transferred intact for the Myth Moon" from Arizona to the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. From there it began a tour of the country's top museums. Be on the lookout for it, and if it is showing in your favorite museum it is certainly well worth a visit. Photos by PAUL COTE One can easily conclude an article about this successful Native American painter by quoting Baje Whitethorne's credo: "I paint what I grew up with and what's a part of me and everything I do or have done or know. I can see a hogan and actually relate to it, know what it is. ... It was actually built when I was there and I watched it.... I can smell what it smelled like when we first moved in....
