    Jack Warden has written to AskART.com that at the Paradox Gallery in Woodstock, New York "I saw in his (Mr. Angelock's) gallery one day a few years ago a stunning--I mean stunning--12 x16 landscape by FSC. I wanted to buy it but Mr. Angeloch wouldn't part with it. He also had a pochade box that had belonged to John F. Carlson, and that too he would not sell. "
