From the artist, 8/28/2017:

"I have been watching the news non stop and I am devastated at the impact this storm is having on this city and the Texas coast. We are safe and stuck in the city and all I want to do is jump in a boat and help rescue or volunteer or just do something. However, I realized in my anxiety of wanting to help these families and sweet pets that the most powerful impact that we all can have is #pray #prayforhouston #prayfortexas #prayforourresponders #prayforourdoctors #prayforstrength #prayforendurance #prayfordeliverance I quickly painted this muddy Texas watercolor this morning as a quick stress outlet. The colors remind me of the bayou and the heart is hopeful. #hopeful #texasforever "
