This pine tree is on my daily walk. Every day it draws my attention as it stands alone and on the crest of a hill. Usually I walk in the mornings but this time it was sunset and it glowed in a such a beautiful way that I had to document it as a memory and share it so others could see it. The frame is a strip frame of urethaned pine and it can be hung or will stand on it's own.

This wonderful artist, Margaret Egli, is the person who runs the fantastic European Art Trips that I have attended for many years. Her work is lose and colorful. I feel fortunate that she and her husband, Arwed, moved to Florida after living in Switzerland all their lives and have provided the opportunity for so many of us to travel to Europe and learn so much about the history there and see so many amazing places.
My friend Judy and I went to a portrait demo today from 9 to noon at Margaret's home and had lunch. There were a dozen painters in attendance and Judy was the model. Everyone brought a dish. Margaret's home is located in Rotunda, the area where yesterday 80 acres were burnt to the ground, no homes were involved, but her neighborhood was evacuated up to across the street from her, so she didn't have to leave, but could see the flames. Here are a few photos of today's event.
