FiFi Flora

These are the flowers that my sweet R.J. Reynolds girlfriends gave to me at the beach . . . it was a "thank you" for getting us back together after we had graduated, gone our separate ways, married, had our own families and were just beginning to think about each other again. That was 20 years ago, and we are still "re-union-ing" each year, and . . . with our past history and long-time bond, have grown closer than ever. I just had to paint these flowers to capture them forever! . . . and what is 'FiFi"?  . . . Friends Forever . . . 11 of us . . . go figure!
