I was an art major and taught elementary and secondary art (among other things) until I quit to raise a family. When the children were growing up I had a sucessful home-based business designing and making small sculptures, which were more crafts than art. When my children were older a friend and I formed a corporation, rented warehouse/office space and went national. We had that business for 13 years, specializing in handcrafted angels. Even before my diagnosis of PD, I began to have difficulty with my job because of slowness, rigidity, and difficulty in painting details,etc. So we sold our business and I decided to go back to painting watercolors. I am assembling a portfolio of work and will eventually do a presentation to a couple of local galleries. Right now I am just enjoying the joy of painting seriously again. The beautiful thing about watercolors is that the further this dumb disease progresses, the looser and more "watery" my paintings will get. Accidents with applying paint sometimes turn into the best part of a painting - so there are lots of opportunities ahead for experimentation, growth, and delight. Good luck with your mosaics. I love the idea of the abstact stained glass shapes. I think the main thing about continuing as an artist with PD is to find a medium where precision is not imperative and just let creativity run wild. Mary Sheehan
