April 1, 2021                Hello everyone! I'm Eleanor, 64 years old, married with 3 grown-up kids. Still working full time, however, plans to retire in a year or two. Like many others, I am just an ordinary woman, went to college, pursued a degree, have a decent job, built a family, had fallen on hard times but managed to rise.

Now that I am near retirement, life is less demanding and effortless. I feel this is the time to start a new phase where I reconnect fully to my passions and bring them out of the back burner.

Art has deep rooted connections with life. It excites me when I am bored, makes me happy when I am sad. It makes me calm when I am edgy, brings me peace with all the disturbance. Whatever emotions you are in, art may not provide a complete solution. However, I believe it provides a vehicle to manage through and persevere.

So, I invite you to jump on the wagon of thoughts and let us build a trail where art leads the way.
