The Fulton Daily Sun-Gazette-1939:

David Mode Payne, who conducts class in painting at the new School of Professional Arts in New York City, is in Fulton visiting with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mode Payne of West Seventh Street.

Mr. Payne has been with the new school since it opened last year and has also retained his connections with the House and Garden Magazine of which he has been a staff member of the past six years.

The Fulton Daily Sun Gazette:March 1941

The Mode Payne home on Seventh Street is the subject of a feature story in the April issue of the House and Garden. The story and illustrations are by David Payne, son of Mr. and Mrs. Mode Payne.

A summery of the history of the home recalls that it was built in 1857 by his great-grandfather, James Robnett, and tells of how Jesse James used as a refuge from officers during one of his visits to Fulton and Callaway County. In addition to the four pages of the story, there are portrait paintings of three rooms in the Payne home displaying antique furniture which his mother started collecting in 1906.

When he graduated from his hometown college in 1929 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in French, few people would have thought that David Mode Payne would someday paint and exhibit portraits of the interiors of the rich and famous. But from 1933 to 1953, Payne did exactly that, and many paintings were reproduced in House and Garden and Town and Country magazines.

An exhibit of Payne's work is currently featured at the Winston Churchill Memorial and Library at Westminister College.

Mr. Payne was the son of David Mode and Ann Opal (Shaw) Payne. Born in 1907, he attended Westminister, where he was active in a variety of campus activities and an honors student. After graduating from the Fulton College, he traveled to New York City where he studied at the New York School of Fine and Applied Arts.

David served in the Uited States Army in World War 11.
