Simple, Stripey Love


Click Here to Bid

There are a lot of folks in Colorado who are losing their homes because of the fires there. My heart goes out to them all in a big way. I know it's a small gesture, but I will be donating the proceeds of this painting to the victims in Colorado.

    I think it is a beautiful gesture and a beautiful painting.

    Every little bit helps! That's a very generous gesture.

    Yesterday they were on the verge of evacuating the neighborhood where I grew up in Boulder - fortunately the rain intervened and at least that particular fire is under control.

    And also: a beautiful painting, as always :)

    No generous gesture made from the heart is too small. Your heart is HUGE and kind.

    What a heartfelt gesture and a beautiful painting.
    Pam Holnback is not far from the fires but safe it appears. Look forward to seeing you both in early October!!!

    Thank you. As the fires continue to burn, the smoke continues to bother us, and people we know now learn their houses are gone, everyone here in Colorado Springs appreciate all the gestures of caring from around the nation.

    I thought you might be reliving your pain at leaving Texas through the scary events going on in Colorado and other western states. Nice gesture and lovely painting.

    Good for you, Carol. I am sure you understand, more than most, how devastating it can be to lose your home. My daughter lives in Aspen and she said that she can smell smoke in the air, even there! Pretty painting, by the way!

    I'd expect nothing less from a class act like you, Carol; thanks for your generosity. I've thought of your exodus from Texas several times and have had more than a few daydreams about Oregon.
