Trudy Richards
Painter
Belmont Village Westwood – Los Angeles
“Being creative is the most important thing that you can do for yourself. I took my first acrylic painting class in Hawaii when my kids were small. My husband loved all of my work so I kept painting. At one point my work was selling in a gallery in Orange County. It was the highlight of my career.”
