Amy Catherine Griffiths Difley Brown O'Toole ( that's a mouthful of a name) was an accomplished artist, born in New York in 1896, who later settled in San Diego, California. Her paintings were inspired by the breathtaking landscapes and coastlines of Southern California, which she captured on horseback in plein air style. She passed away in 1987. Her works are in the collection of the Serra Museum in San Diego. less
