| Art for Life February 2011 - June 2011 Nelson County Health System Care Center |
| During the week of March 7th through the 11th, we welcomed local artist Sue Olson back to work with us in the traditional glass mosaic art form. Sue had worked with us in the previous Art for Life session where the residents created “A Window to my World”. That work won the residents an honorable mention in the Traditional category in the 2009 Pekin Art Show. It is proudly displayed and cherish by all. Sue had the residents work on smaller projects this time around as to involve more residents all at once. She had them work on a bowling ball that transformed into a beautiful garden gazing ball, a plow disc transformed into a sunflower plate, a plain flower pot into a mosaic pot and small square tile scenes that residents created and are enjoying in their own rooms. |
Pieper Bloomquist returned to us the
week of April 5th through the 8th.
Pieper lives in Grand Forks and
works as a nurse at Altru. Pieper also
has worked with us before and
introduced us to Swedish Dala
painting. She taught us the difference
between Swedish Dala painting and
Norwegian Rosemaling. The
residents worked on individual
paintings using pre-printed patterns
varnished on canvas. The Swedish
colors that were used are more red-
orange than what is used in the
traditional Norwegian Rosemaling.
Pieper worked on a large mural
depicting the ages of man back in our
new dayroom during “down” times of
the day. Residents and family
watched her as she magically made
the picture come alive. We are very
excited that this picture was given to
the Care Center and now hangs in the
dayroom.
