Shopping with Irma

This is my friend Irma.  She is 101 years old and quite a woman.  Here she is with Nan.

Today the three of us went to the art store to purchase paint and look around at art supplies.

Even though Irma is 101, and has difficulty seeing, she still loves to paint and so she does. Here is her latest:
Beautiful....


Did I mention she is legally blind?  

Yes, the picture is cool, but Irma, the one who painted it, really is the beautiful one.  She is very inspiring to all who know her, that is for sure.  She accomplished this with a sponge and a cotton swab. 

At 101 she still does her daily chores, hosts an artists class, and goes out with friends for lunch, and to browse the artist section of the store.

Irma is quite a woman!
