Artist Notes:
"She enjoyed all the finer 'things' in life associated with 'good taste'. She had style, grace and elegance with a
touch of the rascal, which facilitated her ability to charm when she flashed those baby blues. The finer things
also included good food and the experience of cooking it, a child's giggle, a moment of honesty between
strangers, par on the course, a good joke, respecting another's opinion, a flower. The Asian Cymbidium flower
depicted in this painting was part of history even before the establishment of Western Civilization. Yet even
today, it's recognized as a symbol of elegance, virtue and friendship. As in ancient times, the Cymbidium is
considered a gift of respect, a gift I give to respect the memory of Betty, my mom, who taught me to appreciate
the finer simplicities of life."
