Flowers in a wrapped Pot (sketch)

Undated sketch of flowers in a wrapped pot.

Ships on the Horizion

An oil painting.  This one reminds me of navy ships on the horizon, but you might see something very different.  MSH has this one.   This one is fairly large; I remember it as about 3' x 4'.

Still Life with Wooden Spoons

Sketch of wooden pencils in a stein.  4/29/96

Bamboo Gutter Plumbing

Gutter plumbing in bamboo.  This would have been taken in the late '60s.  Other framing photos show that this is the roof of a temple, but I can't identify which one.

Under the Bridge

Support posts under a wooden bridge.  Japan, late '60s.  I don't know what bridge this is, though it appears to be at a temple (note the torii.)

Blacksmithing and Welding (watercolor)

Barn with a sign saying "Blacksmithing and Welding".  Watercolor done during college.  9.5" x 13.5"

Undated sketch of a camera.  This seems to have been done when RTH was in college.

Backlit spider and web.  Presumably taken in Japan in the late '60s.

Expo 70 Light sculpture

Light sculpture at Expo '70 in Japan.

Kokeshi Doll Trio (Sketch)

Three Kokeshi dolls.  They're a Japanese style of carved wooden dolls.  I suspect this was drawn from some of the dolls in KSR's collection.  Sketch in colored pencil.   The original is hanging in JLS' apartment.

Haystack Rock (sketch)

Haystack Rock, Pacific City, Oregon.   19 June, 2001.

Iron (sketch)

An electric iron.  I think this was done in college.

The Rectory at Orknay Springs (sketch)

Tule Field

Oil painting called "Tule Fields" in my notes, though I don't know where I found the name.  JLHS says RTH had been taking a class in Geology before he painted this.  He was very interested in the land layers and had been on several field trips out in the country.    I have this painting.  It's 48" x 58".

Flowers in a Vase (Painting)

Flowers in a Vase.  Tempura on Paper.  This is about 12" x 20".  It was painted while RTH was in College.

Old man cleaning the surface of a stream.  I don't know the story behind this picture, but it seems characteristic.

Container of Ice Cream in blue Ink and Black marker.  undated

The Preparation (sketch)

The Preparation.  17 May 1997.  From a series of sketches of wedding locations that RTH gave as wedding presents.

A sunlit oblique look at a spiderweb.  Japan, late 1960s.

Barn and Wagon (watercolor)

A simple watercolor of a barn and wagon.  The lines have bled a little, but it's still nice.  Undated.

Stone Lantern under leafy Tree

Yet another Stone Lantern.

Italian Square (sketch)

This is a photo of a (signed) sketch.  It looks like an Italian square to me.  I don't have a copy of the sketch, but the photo seems like it was taken around 1960.  I'm not sure where RTH would have been traveling at that time.  It's possible that it was drawn from a photo.

Mt Fuji from Hayama

A view of Mount Fuji as seen from the house where we lived in Hayama.  I recognize the spire at the bottom as part of the Hayama Marina (where we lived for a few months when we first arrived in Japan.)  I think we lived in Hayama in 1968.

Hasselblad (sketch)

Sketch of a Hasselblad camera.  Undated, but it's definitely one of his earlier works from college or around that time.

Ships at Sea

Abstract of ships at sea.  This was RTH's first oil painting done with a palette knife.  It represents "a feeling he had while on watch on the ship at sea in early morning."  The original is 3' x 4'.  I have it hanging in my living room.   This one is pretty popular: RWH has an almost-full-size copy on display, and KSR has a smaller copy up as well.

Lakeside Peaks of Otter Lodge (sketch)

Lakeside sketch at the Peaks of Otter Lodge, Virginia.  February 1997.

Flowers in a Bottle (sketch)

Undated sketch of flowers in a bottle.

Reflections

Reflections on the side of a glass building.  I always thought this photo had been taking in New York City on a trip to visit the UN, but it's collected with a group of photos from Japan's Expo 70, so that's where I now think it was taken.

Ivy at Table Edge

Drawing in ink of an ivy plant.  One of the works RTH did in college.  The paper is crinkled, so it was hard to get a clean scan.

Bamboo windscreen on sand dune

This style of bamboo fence was often used in Japan as a snow fence, but I don't remember seeing them at the beach.  In any case, it was clearly in need of maintenance.   Late 60s.

Blue Flower and Bottle (Sketch)

Flower in a Bottle, sketched in blue ink.   Undated.

Sketch in blue ink and marker of a house and an off-shore boat.  Undated.

Google's image search identifies this as the GUM mall in Moscow.

Deschutes River (Sketch)

Deschutes River, Bend, Oregon.  7 July 2001.

Children Painting

Japanese children painting in a public park.  

Ocean Waves (painting)

Oil Painting of ocean waves.   Thanks to EWR for the improved image.  As I recall, this was over RTH's main work desk at Terra Uchi.  KSR has it at present.

Zushi House 1966-1968

This is the house we lived in the first time we lived in Zushi, from 1966 to 1968.  This view shows the wisteria vine that showed up in an earlier photo. 

Exposed Tenement Building Face

I think this was taken in 1978 or so.  We're looking a the remaining building after the building that used to occupy the lot RTH shot from was demolished.  There were apparently some openings in the firewall between the buildings, and they've been covered up with plywood.

Locomotive Wheel

Locomotive wheel.  From a set of photos of heavy machinery and mechanisms.  Taken around 1968, in Japan.

Flowers in a vase (Sketch)

Flowers in a vase.  dated 4/15/97.  I like the way RTH concentrated on 

the background and drew minimal details of the flowers themselves.
