This painting was in Trish and Verna's house when it flooded. Trish and Verna live in FEMA trailers down the street. Jonathan Traviesa had a small section of the flood-damaged painting restored - it is the area outlined in white chalk on the right. The image on the left is a photo of the painting pre-restoration. photo by Jonathan Traviesa
