Renewal Date: 26/Mar/2025
I am a senior who enjoys travel, history, music, art. My five children are grown with children of their own. Until his passing in January 2022, my husband and I had a web-based business at which I am still working part-time from home filling orders for prints done by Dick who was a professional illustrator. I also continue to manage the business side of the company. Dick worked at his drawing table creating beautiful works of art. He is still recognized in our country as a premier artist and was a member of the Society of Illustrators in New York for more than 40 years.
