These paintings were created in Summer 2014 in Washington and Saratoga counties by elderly suffering with Alzheimer's and Dementia. They are inspired by steel sculptures by artist Marc DiSuevro, that are located at Salem Art Works. They paintings progress in style based on early to late stages of Alzheimer's Disease. In later stages of the disease the paintings become abstract and the stories that go along with them become more and more imaginative.
