Thank you Annie Griffith Belt

Olive Trees in Galilee

A while back my dentist lent me a book by Annie Griffith Belt, a well known National Geographic photographer.  I was enchanted by her photos from all over the world.  Olive Trees in Galilee was a two page spread that just called out to be painted.  So I looked her up on the web and sent off a note asking permission to paint the photo for my own personal use.  Not only did she reply within just a few hours, she said yes!

I hope Annie is as pleased as I am with the result.
