At the age of 16, I gave up art for a career path in science and subsequently law. In retirement, I‘ve returned to my artistic roots and threw myself into painting and drawing using internet resources that were not previously available to me. I’ve been in suspended animation for fifty years and need to catch up.

My name is Aleks I’m an avid reader and was a writer however after some time I started to lose my interest in writing and could not pursue it any longer. Not in the way I wanted to anyways.
I am a 67-year-old artist that is self-taught. I began my love of art as a very young child and presented anyone and everyone a piece (or more) of art regardless if they wanted it or not. Seriously, I began my art career when I was 15. I began with portraits made from the wallet sized senior pictures of my friends and family.
My name is Mary O’Donnell and I am a special education English teacher. Two years ago, I lost my beloved aunt that was like a mother to me, then I lost vision in my left eye. I was at a loss for what to do in order to move past the hardest time of my life. I thought about my aunt who loved to paint, and in her memory, I began to paint and draw in order to strengthen my remaining eye. I fell in love with art, and have been teaching myself how to draw and paint ever since. It has been such a fun journey, but there are challenges when trying to teach myself drawing.
