| "You Can Do It! ART" |
| Helen has taken on teaching other rehab and assisted living residents in her facility, after doing the DVD beginning watercolor lessons herself on her own. Mary, shown below, is enjoying her first ever watercolor painting! Painting expressive brush strokes under Helen's friendly encouragement, and using her favorite colors. |
| Mary Cloud, 72, said, "I guess it was inside me, and I didn't even know it!" Here she is, with two of the four paintings she did one afternoon. (click on photos to enlarge) |
| Gail, a resident with Alzheimer's, painted with the brush strokes lesson in spite of conventional thought that Alzheimer's patients can't focus on this type of activity. Gail created this painting in three minutes. |
| Seniors enjoy creative outlet and freedom of expression as they paint together using the DVD video lessons. |
| "I can scarcely contain myself--it's so much fun!" says Helen Kirby, 84, as she shows her first paintings with the Wet-on-wet and Brushstrokes lessons she learned in the first two lessons on DVD #1. "I feel so alive!" |
