Chosen for the coveted cover was oil painting, “Passion”, which features one of the most beautiful sites in the Tuscan region of Italy. The landscape shows a field glowing in vibrant red poppies as far as the eyes can see. A quaint, Tuscan farm house rests on a hill over-seeing this crimson ocean.
The editorial also features three additional paintings which act as constant windows to a perennial place and time. “We are very excited to have Lucy’s wonderful paintings displayed in our magazines! Her work is fabulous and we’re sure our 73,000 readers will agree.” Vicki Yontz, editor. So “congratulations” to Lucy! I’m certain this is the first and many more to come”.
