I am a 38-year-old firefighter/paramedic who has a beautiful wife who works in Hematology/Oncology at the University of Chicago. I probably failed every art class I took as a kid and didn't appreciate it. Now, as a stress reliever, I asked for art supplies. Initially, people thought I was kidding, but really enjoy spending time with the canvas and just painting. I look forward to more projects, but this literally was made in one night with lessons from a great artist that I consider a dear friend, Mary Oleksy.
