Ivey's Closet 8 inch by 10 inch oil on canvas $125 see enlarged picture.

Inspired by Lee Ivey's NCSD Closet. With Lee Ivey's closet, shows a strict school marm or mother standing
in front of the closet where Lee was a child and was put in a closet because she broke the rules by signing
in class. Years later, many Deaf students were put in a closet, called "Ivey's Closet." Memories were written
in graffiti all over the closet wall.
