A celebration of passion and talent: Memory care community showcases art of senior with dementia
MURRIETA - The art of Gail Taylor, aged 83, will be showcased from 10 a.m. to noon, Sept. 11 at Vineyard Place, an Anthem Memory care community, located at 24325 Washington Ave., Murrieta.
The Vineyard Place resident is known for her work in depicting leaves in copper and metals. Leaves are borrowed from nature, dipped in various acids and placed on copper. These images are etched leaving a one-of-a-kind leaf image. Some of the leaves are embellished with soldering, wire and various mixed media images.
Taylor’s work has been featured in books and have hung in various hospitals and major hotels across the country. Although dementia has changed the way she creates art, Taylor continues her artistry in different ways such as coloring and crafting at the community.
