She was a famous Island artist. Her residence and art studio was in the Friars Bay area. I have many of her paintings in my home and I will miss visiting with her when I am on the island.

Jazzgal will chime in once she gets settled in to horny Toad. Ruby Bute was a wonderful local artist of much reknown on the French side. Her studio was just off friars Bay road to the left before taking bridge over the gut.

I was really saddened to read about this on FB as I had planned to go visit her this trip. Like Elizabeth, I have a lot of her art: prints, tiles, coasters, other miscellanea. I even have one giclee that I haven't yet gotten framed. She was unique: kind, irreverent, fun, author as well as painter. The island has suffered a big loss today.
