95 and still at it!
This is a three foot wide, five foot high vinyl banner for the entry foyer of a gallery. The Straight sisters grew up in rural Missouri and went on to teach at Cornell in New York, and do their art, be it watercolor or oil. Clara is still at it. She's 95, and has created almost two dozen new works for this show!
Since these works were done primarily outside, I hint at a multi-paned window. The script is from Clara's own hand. I enlarged it from about one inch in width to three feet, filling in and smoothing where needed. It's still a little rough around the edges, but that's ok.
