This beautiful collage was done by a very close California friend who is an incredible artist. She has, heretofore, been a watercolorist and is now trying her hand at collage. She sent me the image and gave me permission to upload to this blog. I am not printing her last name as I don't know if she wants to publicize herself yet. She doesn't have a web site or blog. Her late husband, my husband and I were close friends since high school. We met Cindy in the early Seventies. They had an incredible marriage. He died of colon cancer seven years ago and it was a terrible tragedy for all but mostly for Cindy. She stopped painting and rarely picked up a brush until recently. I am the very lucky recipient of one of her beautiful works. It is a watercolor of pastel roses in a round crystal vase. Exquisite.
So happy to see you painting again, my beautiful friend. Thank you for letting me share.
