We Are Thinking of You
I’ve learned that a subscriber to Recollections, Reflections, Fantasies, Fictions lives in the California fire zone and has seen her life devastated by the fires this week. As a gesture of remembrance and solidarity with her, her family and her neighbors, I’m sharing images of paintings of the area, made a hundred years ago by Houston artist Emma Richardson Cherry. Cherry’s paintings vividly show the beauty and grandeur that have made the area such a compelling part of the lives of so many for so long. And perhaps they can now be a beacon of hope for a future return to that beauty when the flames have been quenched.
We’re thinking of you now – and wishing you the strength to go forward to that reborn future.
Our thoughts and prayers are with them. Thanks for the beautiful post. 🥹
This is lovely.
