Painting Portraits of Elders

Artistic EquipmentEngAGE loves projects like this one: Solon, Ohio, artist Judy Takács paints the portraits of older people at the senior center. (At left, she’s working on a portrait of Joseph Russ.) “While many artists may prefer the young and the beautiful, seniors provide something unique,” Takács said. “I love painting older people, the wrinkles and everything that happens to your face as you get older. They have so many wonderful expressions.”

The plan is to have a show in November featuring the paintings at the Solon Center For the ArtsClick here to read more about the project. Click here to visit the artist’s website.
