I have Severe Familial Tremors, didn't think it possible but my friend insisted I try art class. Was a Miracle the way it calmed my shaking.

Painting brings peace and calm to my shaky body. As I immerse myself in each piece I create, I loose track of time and before I realize, the tremors are almost gone. Painting is like a therapy for my nervous system. I love painting pictures of skies, beaches, mountains, flowers and peaceful landscapes. Recently I painted a picture of Jesus holding and loving his newly rescued lamb... I believe I captured the essence of his love for us. That was my favorite.
Where do you find inspiration?The glorious beauty of the earth that our Father in Heaven has created. My husband and children, grandchildren and the peace I feel deeply while enjoying this amazing miracle of creating art for others to enjoy! Grateful for this new talent discovered only one year ago at 65 years old.
What would you do with $25,000?I would like to donate to the Orangeburg Council on Aging, art program and the artist, Campbell Frost (my instructor). The Guidance and encouragement I've received has been priceless! I will also give to my Church, pay bills and of course art supplies.
