Dorothy Rhines, 90, was a beloved watercolor artist from Satellite Beach whose paintings graced the cover of Senior Scene magazine beginning in 2006.
A lifelong artist with training from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Dorothy spent decades exploring acrylics and oils, yet always returned to her first love — watercolor.
Through delicate brushstrokes and vibrant color, Dorothy beautifully captured coastal landscapes, nature, and the quiet moments of everyday life. Her work reflected her deep love for the ocean and the peaceful charm of Florida’s shores.
Dorothy was the most popular artist on the cover of Senior Scene Magazine. Her Space Shuttle art was featured on our very first cover and she immediately became part of the Senior Scene family.
Dorothy’s artistic legacy lives on through her children, and the many paintings she created, each one bringing warmth, beauty, and inspiration to all who experience them.
