The Houses of My Friends

by Dennis Smith

“Born and raised in the small town of Alpine, Utah, Dennis Smith attended a little red brick school with just fourteen classmates. This lively children’s book takes the reader on a tour of Alpine as Dennis introduces you to his friends and their houses. The tour wouldn’t be complete without historical details only known to those who were raised in the little town.

The illustrations depicting the houses of Dennis’ friends are curated from his past 60 years of creative work. The main subject of his oil paintings is Al;pine, his lifetime of memories associated with his friends and the geography of the town. Dennis is a renowned sculptor and painter who paints using universal metaphors that draw the viewers in and teaches them about life in a way that only art can.”
