The Alaska Paintings

Inspired by webcam photos she saw on the Internet, Philadelphia artist and musician Betsy Alexander has begun a series of small, evocative works known as The Alaska Paintings (3.5" x 5", acrylic on wood). The constantly updated webcam photos are provided by the Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) as a help to pilots who need to know the current weather conditions in various parts of Alaska. Alexander, whose dream it is to one day travel to and through Alaska, can be found on the Internet every day checking out the sunset photos as they are uploaded.
