I have been told that there was a James Waughtel (Waughtell) who painted landscapes in the mountains of Arizona during the mid/late 1800s ~ the story I heard was that he more or less hibernated up in the hills while he painted. He was born or raised in California, although I don't recall rightly just what locale ~ but believe it might have been northern California. Any information would be gratefully appreciated. I am sorry that I don't know any more about this man and am hoping that I might.
