“As an avid plein air painter for 23 years, I find water fascinating and fun to paint. I love the transparency, the reflective quality, and the movement of water. Alameda is a town rich with inspiration for the plein air painter and I was inspired by this lagoon-side home. It was great fun to paint with its distinctive architecture, bright garden with a stately King Palm, and its brilliant red umbrella reflecting in the waters of the Grand Street Lagoon.” –Marie Massey, winner of the Frank Bette Center for the Arts 2021 PAPO Award
