Alex is my friend – she lost her home to the Woolsey Fire last November. While my home was spared, Alex and her family lost EVERYTHING but their love and dignity and as I painted this I think I captured just a bit of her beauty and determination with a touch of sadness for what is gone.

This is my friend Mariam, inspired from a photo of her that I took at a dainty afternoon tea party with friends. I did not aim for likeness, but rather a feeling. Several friends have asked me, “Is that Mariam?” yes – it is.
