Heart and Art

I love seeing where Collectors actually hang my work! This is a picture that Cynthia Ellis sent me of her new giclee, "Autumn Stroll" hanging above her fireplace mantel.

This is the email she sent me when she ordered the giclee:

If you don't mind, I thought I would tell you why we loved "Autumn Stroll" so much. We bought 35ac in Divide, CO and contracted to have our "dream house" build on it. Unfortunately, the builder was not a good person and experience turned into a financial nightmare. Even so, when summer came it was heaven on earth there. Some of my most fond memories are walking the woods and roads, listening to the Aspens. We were there for 6 years. During that time, both of my daughters were born and sadly, my Father died of a sudden heart attack while in the house. We ended up trying to sell the home for over two years to move closer to my husbands workplace in Colorado Springs (winters were tough). He got a job offer in AZ and an investor came in and bought our home, but for much less than its market value. Regardless of the emotional rollercoaster we experienced there, it still holds a special place in our hearts and your painting captures the happiest of memories we experienced there. Thanks for listening!
