Let’s shout it out for our LOCAL businesses!
Gracing the cover is a painting by local artist Sandy Ruda. The artwork is entitled ‘Serenity’.
Sandy told us “My oil painting, Serenity, was inspired by dear friends of mine who were getting married last year. I wanted to give them an original painting of mine as a gift and I put a lot of thought into the subject matter. I love painting fruit and that led me to this still life as this couple relishes culinary pursuits. The classic and elegant feel in the mood of this piece also felt right for them.
The subtle lighting on the fruit and pitcher created a sense of calm and serenity and also a sense of timelessness.” Please read her impressive bio on page 8
