“The Night the Fire Started, My View”  Watercolor 16”x 20”

I was inspired to paint the view I had the Night the big fire started. My son, Tony called me from Europe at 2:30 am. He told me that Sonoma was on fire. I was shocked and in disbelief, opened my front door and saw the glow of the east side of Sonoma hills on fire.

This is my second painting, the first was done in a sketchbook before I was evacuated.
