Unforgettable Art 2010


Today I received the great news that I have been selected to be one of 50 artists who will create our art on site for Unforgettable Art, an annual fundraiser for Alzheimer's. Ever since I learned of this event from fellow artist and blogger, Janet Nelson, I have been interested in participating. Janet will be participating again this year and I'm looking forward to meeting her.

Alzheimer's Disease has touched my family - both my father and his mother. It would have been Dad's birthday this week and it is fitting that my acceptance letter would come today.

I chose the above photo for this post because there are so many jet trails among the interesting clouds in the sky. Being a farmer, the weather played an important role in Dad's livelihood. He pointed out different clouds and jet trails to us. Even when Alzheimer's had a firm grip on him, he was still interested in jet trails.
