SUMMARY:Downsizing: Be Careful What You Keep
DESCRIPTION:PROGRAM \nOver time\, a person’s life can become a wonderful wastebasket of ideas and gifts and appropriations. Chris Rogers’ life\, never a straight route from point to point\, has been reinvented many times\, each with its own baggage. In 1962\, an unexplained fire took her home and possessions. In 1982\, lightning caused a fire that gutted her studio/office. Cramming everything she could save into storage\, Rogers retained one art table to continue her business\, then after a year\, opened that storage unit to realize nothing inside was worth saving.  \nIn more recent years\, Rogers – now an established author and painter – elected to downsize her life again. She sold her home to enjoy spending time with her oldest daughter and son-in-law. To accommodate that change\, she happily reduced life and its many possessions to a bedroom with attached bath… plus a recently reinvented storage unit.  \nIn this program\, Rogers will guide you toward a plan for how to keep what you must and how to choose what to lose. \n\n\nSPEAKER \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChris Rogers\, the Story Painter\, is author of nine novels\, about 40 or so short stories\, and various magazine or newspaper articles. She has been published in Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine and Writers Digest Magazine\, among others. Her books can often be found in libraries or bookstores and always on Amazon. Rogers also paints both abstract and representational art. Early in her painting career\, she began to include in selected artwork a few words or sentences from her stories. Her art is displayed at Withrow Furniture in Teague\, Texas and often in Texas galleries. \n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n
