Hi - thought I would add an acrylic on canvas painting, 40" x 30" I finished last month, "Facing the Future". I took reference photos back in April when there were no leaves on the trees. The young father, a popular composer and musician here in Utah, was awaiting a heart transplant and their future was very uncertain. As I was working on the painting over the months, these Autumn colors kept surfacing. I finished the painting in September - just a few days before a heart became available. He has had a miraculous recovery and is now enjoying this beautiful season with his beloved wife & daughter. Sorry for the long story - but it has been so wonderful to have a small part in witnessing this miracle...
