'Miss Ross' has spent the last four weeks on display at the Backus Museum in Ft. Pierce, Florida. After completing an application to show at the museum, I was invited to submit 2 pieces to 'Through Women's Eyes- By Women's Hands, An Invitational'. As I am a member of the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C., I was thrilled to be part of an all women's show.
In this photograph, 'Miss Ross' is center stage in the gallery and was the inspiration for the large flower arrangement behind it. Floral Designers from Florida presented 'Art in Bloom' in cooperation with the Museum and was a fundraiser for the Museum. I am so happy my piece was chosen from the show and delighted it was given such pride of place.
'Thank You's' go out to my sister-in-law, Sharon Hamill, who dragged her son Micheal and several other friends to the show! I wish I could have been there, but was so glad Sharon could make it.
I receive inspiration from various resources, including fashion magazines! 'Miss Ross' came to me early one morning, while I was still a little bit asleep. I could see her clearly and her name was also there. 'Miss Ross' is on her way to Texas this week, where I will show her at the Main Street Arts Festival, April 8-11.
