Project Heart Little Hearts, Big Art Gala

I am so humbled that this painting sold at the annual Project Heart fundraiser on September 21, 2019 for $9,000, 100% of which I donated to the organization. It was my honor to dedicate it in memory of Everett Jones, and in honor of his parents Lee and Elizabeth Jones and his sister Althea. 

As I worked on this painting, I kept seeing a hummingbird and a heart, and I eventually gave up trying to make it NOT look like those things; then I quickly understood that this piece came into being so that it would be my donation this year for the auction. It was inspired by dreamy summertime days with melting popsicles, shimmering sunlight and shifting shadows, and dreamy music.
