A little note from Ruth....

2010 will be an exciting year for myself and my daughter, Nina, 13 and soon to be 14. We have been through a lot in the past couple of months..many life changes have taken place, and we are optimistic about this coming year! Now that Nina is being home schooled, we have decided to take a cross country trip, just her and I, camping, hiking, and enjoying each others company. Nina wants to go to Forks, Washington and go hiking...she has some vague memories of Seattle from when she was very small and would love to revisit the area. When she was little, between 18 months and 5 years, my husband and I would travel the country every summer in a camper or RV, street performing along the way. Unfortunately, for Nina, she doesn't remember a whole lot about those days except through photographs.


So, Nina and I have decided to fund our trip to Washington State from the sales of my paintings through Picture This Gallery!! I am grateful to Mira for providing me with such a wonderful opportunity to show my work in Hilton Head and giving me my first One Man Show in three years...and I owe her many, many thanks..what a wonderful, generous spirit she is!!
