(Reporter Jennifer Rooks) "A woman's dream of becoming a professional painter has come true. Brenda Ferguson, a former teacher, is hosting her first major art exhibit at her studio home in Dixmont. Ferguson says her inspiration for the pastel paintings comes from nature, but the inspiration to become a full time artist came from her husband." (Brenda Ferguson) "Really, he knows my passion for this and my love of it and my dream of maybe doing it full time. And so he really encouraged me and said this is something you need to do. And you need not wait any longer. We can manage okay." (Reporter Jennifer Rooks) "Ferguson has painted more than a hundred original works in past two years." |
