Description

Famous author, play write and artist, Tennessee Williams, resided in Key West for 35 yrs. His birthday is in the month of March, so the Tennessee Museum in town celebrates his birth with a short story, poem, and a plein air painting competition. This year I chose to enter a painting of the Key West Art Center, which Tennessee supported by purchasing the first piece of art ever sold in 1960. I am so very honored to have received the top award for the professional painter group for my piece titled,  “Roses for Sale” after his first film, “The Rose Tattoo”, filmed in Key West. Thank you to the museum judges, and to the Tennessee Museum for this event and award!
