🎨Our thanks to artist Nicole Dupuy of the Canyon Lake Art Guild for gifting this stunning landscape of our building to Library Director Jenny Rodriguez! Nicole titled the piece "I came, I saw, I learned" from the Latin "Veni, Vidi, Didici" featured on a sign by our exit as well as in the foreground of the painting.

Thanks as well to Susan Bogle for initially contacting Nicole to purchase the piece before it was generously donated by the artist 👩‍🎨
