They visit Indian Rocks Beach annually.   Each year their love for this beautiful seaside town grows more and more.   Their historic house in Europe has just welcomed  a collection of painting by the Plein Aire Cottage Artists.  The subject are primarily beach scenes.   They asked that their purchases be kept confidential, which we respect.


This is the type of art that appealled to them and a trip tych has left our Florida shores.

This painting:  "She lived in a rich man's garden"  by Helen Tilston


A letter of thanks arrives and stated that they have placed some of our paintings in the hallway of their home and a night light glows.  He said he stops and visits them before retiring.
