I originally created this site for paintings, but since I have so many stories about the days before cell phones, computers, and electronic devices, I added a Stories page and started uploading them in April 2023. They're short, true, and personal.
My interest in painting began with a need for gifts and came about as a necessity, rather than a choice. It proved to be more than that. I try to spend as much time as I can now, painting portraits and enjoying the slow pace of retirement.
