garden of love - 9 of 10

my comments today will be about dawn, rather than the envelope. she signed up for my class called art for the intimidated because she had turned 70 and was excited to have retired and looked forward to learning to paint. her own mother had started painting when she was 80 and had quite a few years as a successful painter. so, dawn felt like she was getting an *early* start on her next career. she dove into every project and actually took my advice. i was very impressed with how well she did.

recently, i saw an article that told of some company luring her back to a job. i hope it is just part time. i suspect she was very good at her first career and probably enjoyed the work. hopefully she has been enjoying the painting, too.
