Winding down from a decades-long calling as a licensed marriage & family therapist, Patt Pickett is pursuing her life’s passion: painting & multi-media creations. And her artwork is neither traditional nor mainstream. It ranks as uniquely contemporary, abstract, and friendly with themes of personal growth and harmony.
Her works cry out, “Hello” and invite passersby to soak in images with quizzical interest.
Creating art is also very therapeutic, as was experienced with my dad, who has Alzheimer’s. He was provided a sketch book and a sharpie black pen and was instructed to just draw something, anything, and here’s what Artist Bill Ade created (see below)

Dad would love to hear your comments about his drawing – you’ll make his day! Type in your comments below and I promise to share with him during my visits!
“Alzheimer’s, the most common form of dementia, is a specific brain disease that progressively and irreversibly destroys memory and thinking skills. Eventually, Alzheimer’s disease takes away the ability to carry out even the simplest tasks. Researchers have made some progress when it comes to finding treatments that may be able to slow the progression of the disease.” (source: Alzheimer’s Association)
