From the Back Cover --

Myra Roberts: Retro Images From The Florida Coast is a collection of vintage-style oil paintings by critically acclaimed Sanibel Island artist, Myra Roberts. The limited edition hard cover introduces her stunning new paintings of famous personalities who came to Sanibel & Captiva, such as Anne Morrow Linbergh, J.N. "Ding" Darling and Thomas Edison. Roberts' 1920s to 1950s-style art portrays the things people love about Florida: palm-fringed beaches, blue-green water, sea turtles, bathing beauties, and other tropical scenes. Roberts' art is on display in private and public collections across the United States and Europe, including the private museum of Robert Rauschenberg. She moved to Sanibel in 2000 from the Chicago area with her husband, Wes, and children Bette and David. The book includes an introductory biographical sketch of Roberts and commentary on her paintings by Brian Johnson, author of Sanibel Island bestseller Amazing Animal Stories From CROW.
