Welcome to Florida FRAMED PRINT - NP
Welcome to Florida FRAMED PRINT by Lisa Lofton
As a child, my family would travel from Kentucky to Florida to visit my
grandparents. We would get so excited when our old station wagon would cross the border from Georgia to Florida and we could stop at the Welcome Station! While my father charted our way to the East Coast of Florida, on interstate 10 to Jacksonville, we would get our complimentary cup of orange juice. I had collected my souvenir “Orange Bird” cup and it was always at my side during our journeys south. This painting is a depiction of the treasured memories of not a Florida native, but a transplant who has lived in the state for over 48 years. This is my home and I hope visiting children still experience the thrill of crossing that state line and being welcomed with a cup of orange nectar. Welcome to Florida!
