Robert Lynn died several years ago. I, too, bought a couple of pieces from him, the first nearly 23 years ago. His son, Peter, lives and paints in New York City.

Like the OP, my wife and I would stop in and have a pleasant chat with the Lynns after a dinner in Grand Case. He would tell us about life on island when they move to St. Martin in (I think) 1970. We would look at their art, and then be on our way.

Grand Case, those conversations and a lot more, unfortunately, is what St. Martin use to be.
