The Troll Bridge | Susan Coulter
In the 1920’s wealthy families from Knoxville Tennessee built summer homes in the Smoky Mountains, to escape the summer heat.

Ionian Sea | Alexis Walter
This painting is inspired by the ocean. The results evoked mystical qualities, that are reminiscent of the blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Upon further reflection, I was drawn further by the sea, and landed on the Ionian Sea that has an ancient history and the mythological figure Io.
