My first month in Italy was very emotionally hard for me, but I found so much encouragement from the strong women living here in Florence. Therefore, I decided to make this piece as a tribute to them. These women, just like the city of Florence, are full of strength, tradition, mystery, and beauty.

This is my entry this year for the New Hope Art League show.

These are some of the top painters of realism in our area. The league was started 40 years ago by member of the Bucks County Impressionist, and rank one of the top art leagues on the East Coast. I didn't get in last year but this year my paintings have gotten stronger. So it is a wait and see. Here is the link to the show. http://www.newhopeartleague.com/
