history and universal concepts from lands near or far. The artist is also inspired by the silhouettes, fabrics, and textures she experienced as a fabrics and fashion editor in New York City for nearly a decade.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Celestial Sea,&#8221; a mixed media painting that measures 68.5 &#8220;x 46.25&#8221;, depicts a fascinating world under the sea. Other paintings of note include The Fashionable Flyfisher, Green Alchemy with Cow, Beach Cyclists, Esperando del Sol (Waiting for the Sun), Floating Flowers, and Pompeii.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Sales of paintings directly benefit the Judith Adele Agentis Charitable Foundation (JAACF), a Bethlehem, PA-based nonprofit organization founded in 2013.
