As an almost 50yo woman I manage to keep a youthful life still enjoying an evening of music and dancing. I am an artist and a pet owner.

Being over 40 puts me in an interesting position to learn from not only others, but also myself. I'm still learning to flourish as a woman, to be graceful yet strong and overall independent. I'm enjoying independence the most. As a still single woman I have the freedom to grow as an artist without interruption and learn a multitude of artistic trades.
How do you stay fabulous?I still love to go dance and see live music. I feel like being active, eating well and a proper skincare regimen can carry a person a long way. Also, being in the company of wonderful people who help one be more self aware can add to ones liveliness.
What would you do with the $40,000?As a small business owner the money would put me in the unique position to not only be able to continue forward, but also to hire other artists. I'd also love to get back into having gallery shows. I used to rent out galleries with a partner to help artists who've yet to experience showing in galleries the opportunity to get a start and good exposure. Another thing I'd love to do is travel to Italy. In my early 20's I was told that I had terminal cancer and set my desire to travel aside.
