You are an admirable contributor to the betterment of our youth via music…
Thank you so much for checking out my blog and my art 🙂
Congratulations on your achievements! I play my piano every day. I am so glad I learned when I was young!
I’m glad the piano is providing you a lifetime of enjoyment.
Thank you! It does. I live to paint and sell my work but I also love music. My grandmother and great uncle attended Peabody Conservatory and taught music. Have a great day!
