Earlier in the week I blogged about resilience in our ButterflyKissesbook blog. My recent trip up to the Jersey coast to visit my friend Betsey Regan was a reminder about what we need to survive- and stay a float in times of upheaval. Betsey, a wondeful artist who has been on my Artist as Collector Series was heavily hit by Super Storm Sandy.

We spent the day together and she gave me a tour of her area.

Betsey has to rebuild and the road is rocky, frustrating, and these days, cold.

She will rebuild.
and in the meantime, that girl is still painting!

Now that's inspiring!
Who inspires you these days?

Betsy you are truly an inspiration ~
Thank you for sharing your life with me.
It's sad to see so much destruction. Betsy really is an inspiration; withstanding such trials is admirable enough, but still painting through it all- wow! That is true resilience!
So true Teresa and Sharmon. Betsey has one of the most disciplined studio practices of anyone I know... and with everything going on, she just sent my son a fabulous painting! Thank you for commenting... it certainly makes blogging more fun.
