A Word From Anne

It's high summer, every day evolving into a heat so hot the very air appears to shimmer.

Wavy lines of warmth rise up from streets and sidewalks. Is it a mirage, or is it real?

You need to slow down and cool down. A nearby garden dense with refreshing green leaves and shade invites you to sit a while and rest from the blazing sunrays.

Retiring into the deep and cooling green, you walk past hedges, lawns, and trees to a bench tucked away in a quiet spot by a pond. As you rest and cool off, you notice something hanging in the air above the pond.

An iridescent thread, a magical creature shimmering in suspended animation just for you. A dragonfly dream...that's also real.

Welcome to your personal oasis: forever yours with this enchanting painting.
