"When I was young, I took art lessons for two years with an art teacher, Mrs. Garavaglia, in Rho, and painting became a lifelong passion. After retirement I had more time and created some of my best work. Over the years, back problems and physical difficulties made me set this passion aside, and buying supplies also became harder. For Christmas I would love a small oil painting kit with a canvas, paints and good brushes so I can finally paint again and devote time to something I truly love."
