Four original silk paintings by Dorothy Davis.
Wildfire ♥ Hot Summer ♥ Once Upon a Forest ♥ Refuge.
Creative Expression Inspired by Fire:
For the Tahoe: Lost & Found Art Auction, Dorothy has submitted four silk paintings that brilliantly capture the intensity of the Angora fire and the heroic battles of the firefighters.
“Even though some homes were lost, I feel my paintings are a tribute to the valiant efforts of the firefighters and home owners who fought to save what they could. There is an element of hope in the paintings.” Dorothy Davis
They are larger than life, and really must be seen in person.
More information about Dorothy and her pieces will be available soon.
