Phase 3:A day in the life

...of Cindy Heffernan:Ms. Heffernan is a retired 71 year old woman. She is a social butterfly.She holds private watercolor classes in her apartment and hosts her book club in her apartment every other thursday. She enjoys displaying her art as well as her students artwork. She wants her apartment to have an open feel with lots of natural light.

"The alarm rings at 9 am, time to get up and get my day started. I draw the shades open to bring in the mornings rays warming up the space and giving me a view of the outdoors. I hurry to make a breakfast and read the paper before Martha comes for her watercolor class. When she arrives we go back to the studio where the most light is and get started. I love having all this space so we can have our supplies close by, but at the same time hide them when we are done. After her class is done I hang up some of her work as well as mine on my gallery wall. Later on in the evening I have over my girls to meet for our book club. I get the spare chairs from the closet and set them around the living room. I have tons of space to stretch out and relax. As we talk we let our imagination run wild and thoughts fill the room. The space around me is serene, not too bright letting me paint my own picture. When the day is over I return to my room to rest for what tomorrow holds"
