Seems so funny to see a painting of mine without the ink. This is another one from the archives, while I sort out the computer issues.
About Amelia Earhart
Amelia
Earhart, who was born in 1897 in Kansas, became the first person to fly
solo across the Pacific Ocean and gained renown as a woman in a field
dominated by men. Earhart worked as a nurse’s aide during World War I
and learned to fly after moving to Los Angeles in 1919. She first became
famous as one of a crew of three to fly across the Atlantic in 1928,
but her best-known flight was her last. As she was attempting to fly
around the world in 1937, her plane disappeared over the Pacific Ocean
and was never found.
