These 10 paintings were created by seniors in an assisted living community in San Francisco. All of them suffered from memory impairment due to Alzheimer's disease. Some of them were familiar with painting, but for most of them painting was a new form of expression.Using professional art supplies, talking about abstract art, the power of color, and allowing the freedom to explore from within, they brought out their inner artist.
