Elaine Heitzer, 63, a professional artist from Butler County submitted her painting titled “Mountain Falls” to the Older Artists of PA Showcase.

“The theme of passages and light appears in my work quite often. I find symbols of my life’s journey in the things I choose to paint. Life can be tragic and dark at times, but I keep my eyes on what is ahead and search for the beauty to be found. I want to share that through my paintings.”
