She didnt start painting until one day she woke up from a dream that she had of her mother. In this dream, she saw her mother in a beautiful garden in heaven. Mary had actually lost her mother to a brain aneurism a few weeks previous to this dream. The dream was so vivid to her with all the flowers and colors. She remembers that in her dream, her mother seemed so peaceful in Gods garden. She knew she had to try to at least draw or paint what she saw in her dream. So she did just that. She then made copies of her painting and gave a copy to each one of her seven siblings. She has been painting ever since that day and either sells or gives her paintings away. She loves to see the smile on someones face when she presents him or her with the gift that God has given her, her talents in the form of paint. Some of her drawings in this book go back about ten years or more. Her talent has improved since then, but she wanted to include some of her older drawings as they were part of her journey while writing her story.
