"Cayo Hueso"

"Cayo Hueso"

Acrylic on canvas 20" x 24" Cayo Hueso is the original Spanish name for the island of Key West. It literally means "bone key". It is said that the island was littered with the remains (bones) from a Native American battlefield or burial ground. The most widely accepted theory of how the name changed to Key West is that it is a false-friend anglicization of the word, on the ground that the word hueso sounds like "west" in English.

"Picture City"

Acrylic on Canvas 24" x 30" During the land boom of the 1920s, elaborate plans were announced to create a town, where motion pictures could be produced. Hobe Sound was renamed "Picture City". The boom collapsed after the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane and the original name was restored. In 1925, the Olympia School opened now known as the Apollo School. Street names remained, as did the cement streetlights along Dixie Highway, the Texaco station and the old train station now relocated.
