I went back to college at 58 to major in Fine Art. I had dropped out 30 years before, distracted and lost. Returning to study exactly what energized me was one of the best gifts I ever gave to myself. I was terrified at first, surrounded by intelligent, youthful, quick individuals. I sat in the front row with my grey hair, reading glasses and pen and paper. I was embraced by these future leaders. I had to explore mediums which intimidated me. I was out of my comfort zone on a regular basis. This experience is what fuels me today.
