Chris holding his painting and ripe pineapple

One Saturday, during our weekly services, I had my art cart out in the Fellowship Hall as usual. What wasn’t usual was the number of people that day who wanted to paint. I think at one point I had 5 painters! Chris, and a couple of his friends, were among them. I had been teaching him an acrylic technique (glazing) when we ran out of time. Even though the painting was not completed, I asked him (and everyone else who painted) to let me take photos of their work. Chris not only let me take a picture of his work, but also his face and a great find off the “free” table! Those pineapples were really good! Juicy and sweet.
