Description
A few years ago, I was the office manager of a retirement home and I also taught art lessons to the residents.
Rather than do the usual tacky ashtrays, etc, I decided we would do a proper art project. I asked them to pick their BIble story and I drew the pictures and they painted them. They really looked forward to their classes and we had a great time. Unfortunately, some of them passed away, or became too incapacitated before they could be finished and someone else took over, so there are two or three names on the bottom. When the paintings were finished, we had a big ceremony and they were so proud of themselves. The retirement home closed permanently on Friday and so I got them all back.
There are twelve in the series and I will post a couple at a time. There isn't too much detail in some of them due to the shaky hands and failing eyesight of some of the residents
