“Violets for Virginia” Notecard

Lin’s Aunt Virginia always made Lin feel special and Virginia loved the color “violet” – not really a saturated purple but a softer shade of lavender. Lin says “she will always remember Aunt Virginia’s bedroom being that color, and all her decor was carefully coordinated like nothing I had ever seen. I thought that was so cool”.

For her birthday, Lin painted these violets and Aunt Virginia hung them in her special room. Lin and her Aunt Virginia also shared a love for the painter Monet and even attended an exhibit together when a show was on tour. After Aunt Virginia passed away, her granddaughter gave the picture back to Lin. It hangs where she can see it daily.

Lin hopes you enjoy these “Violets for Virginia”.
