Florida painter, Everglades, Marco Island, artist Jo-Ann Sanborn

First, congratulations to the winners of the Marco Island Council election! Let's hope that the election results will help to remove some of the contentiousness, restore civility, and allow the island to move forward once again.
Tomorrow will be the Marco Island Wet Paint, benefiting the Marco Chamber of Commerce's Leadership Marco Scholarship Program. Communities are always stronger when businesses and the arts support each other! A number of well known Marco Island artists will be painting at various island locations from 9 in the morning till mid-afternoon. If you'd like to participate you can pick up a map at the Chamber of Commerce or in the local Marco Island Eagle, and visit the artists while they paint. A "wet paint" auction of the paintings will be held tomorrow night at Hideaway Beach Club with a few tickets still available at the Chamber. See you there for a great community art show!
This is one of two mini-paintings started yesterday, and it still needs another pass before it's ready for framing. I'll do that after a visiting student leaves!
