Artwork by Sonia M. Conrad
I am almost 60 years old, from El Salvador, came to this country in 1976 and became a nurse. I have devoted my life to caring for others, 22 years caring for the elderly and will be 15 years in July working for the hospital Home Health. I always loved art, going to museums, galleries, and wished I could do that too. While I drove from patient to patient through mountains, hills, rivers, creeks, woods, I took many pictures of what I wanted to paint one day!.
