Comes Into The Light

Comes Into The Light selected as a Top 20 Painting in the Modern Impressionist Magazines Aug/Sept Impressionist Salon

Seasons... it has become a wonderful Season juried into Major National and International Exhibits, awarded; but along with all of that joy, a very bittersweet season too. For all three of these paintings are at a location hit hard by both Hurricanes Helene & Milton. Two in a row!

The areas of two of these three are closed to the public right now as they rebuild. The first a view from our home, the shoreline depicted hit hard by Storm Surge and many lost everything by it. Thankful that LOTS of rebuilding is going on, my family whom lives up and down the SW FL coast are all safe- and reports of everything from never losing power to loosing everything in their home, major parts of their home and cars even catching on fire from the storm surge.

While we were still HITTing the Road we evacuated my daughter and her baby to safety with us while her husband stayed behind with their pets.

Happy to report their home suffered minor damage and all are safe! Her evacuation turned into quite the adventure for us all, they continued West with us to the Eastern Sierras, Engineer daughter helping us with a project out there. We altered our Lit'l Rev Van to accommodate the babies car seat... and off we went.

WEST... even my granddaughter knew which way we were heading...

WEST... and off we went! It turned into a grand adventure... Daughter and baby traveled over 6000 miles round trip, before she landed back home with her family.

Hubby and I? Well we are still out here! Basically I have been HITTing the Road since May, I will calculate and update you on the total miles and adventures in another share.
