| Beverly "art-inspired, even though I have scleroderma." |
 |
| I have had scleroderma for ten years or more, and am just now able to get back into painting portraits. I stopped for a while, depressed because of my illness. | |
|
I recently did this picture of my dad, who died 3 years ago. I presented it to my mom this March on her birthday. When she unwrapped it, she cried. |
 |
|
Here is one I did of Mark McGwire, the (now retired) ball player from St.Louis. |
 |
| I feel so in touch. This is a wonderful new thing for me, as
I have been unable or unwilling to draw for awhile. Now, every time I
do, I thank God so much. Being able to share, also, is a wonderful thing. |
