The inspiration for "Sarasota Finches," is described by Kathi in her own words:
"When first moving to Sarasota, Florida for the winter season, I was amazed that I was living in a botanical paradise, a declared Bird Sanctuary by the State of Florida. The beauty of the place and bird life were enchanting and my first painting was influenced by the yellow finches. Their color and song, I later learned were symbols of good luck."
