Inward Journey - Outward Journey Exhibit Now Open!

The exhibit at the West Lafayette Public Library is officially open for the month of November.  Forty one paintings trace my journeys over recent years - both the inner and outer journey to France, Israel, with Nature and the Seasons and the Wabash Valley.  I hope the public enjoys the exhibit as much as I enjoyed creating it.  A big thanks to my husband, Steve, and my sister and brother in law , Sue and Brian Henderson for helping to hang the paintings.
