Museum: ArtsWestchester (White Plains, United States)

Technique: Acrylic On Canvas

From the Artist: When I retired from teaching, I had a lot of time on my hands, so I started looking for something to do. I began in community theater with the Clocktower Players in Irvington and did some improv. While working in Camp Mohawk as a woodshop specialist, I started drawing with a bandsaw and with a woodburning kit. I started whittling and decorating walking sticks. I felt I should take up art. I took a drawing class at the Bronx UFT office, where they offered classes for retired school personnel. I followed that up with a workshop on acrylics.When the severity of the Covid 19 became apparent, going indoors became dangerous, but we had the outdoors. Fortunately in Westchester, there are many beautiful places to walk safely. When I see something that appeals to me, I take photos. Sometimes I paint them.
