Story and artwork from Mary O’Donnell
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.

Story and artwork from Janine Bouwer
I finished my N6 in Graphics Design and Photography at Cape College. I gave my CV out everywhere, but no one was hiring. Luckily a friend of mine said her son was opening a game reserve and he had a job for me. That was 17yrs ago and I have been in travel ever since also offering my help in non-profit organizations. I hardly had time to draw or paint but knew it was always my passion. Only recently have I gotten back to drawing and doing what I love, painted my first oil painting of an eagle’s head in 2014.
