I attended the Art Institute of Chicago and Harold Washington College. A thing of beauty can be a thought planted in the mind, of an individual inwhich a thought that he or she can return to from time to time, hopefully placing a smile on their face. This is my way of contributing something to the world in general.
Vivian Laster Dillingham md was born in the city of Chicago, Illinois, in the year 1939, and she attended the Art Institute of Chicago and the Harold Washington College. She grew up in the old neighborhoods where the people enjoyed their differences, and this is greatly depicted in her work as an artist and an author. As well, she exhibited her works in the Hermann Hall Gallery of the Illinois Institute of Technology and the Little Black Pearl in Chicago. Some of her paintings are as far away as Greece. She is the author of a book called Plain Prose and Poetry. Inspired to write by the Creator, there are things she feels all should be privileged to know and understand, since these thoughts enrich lives and give a deeper understanding to all that are capable of deep thoughts, knowing that there is more than just one way to solve a problem. So books written by her clear your mind and free your thoughts and make you come along on a journey that will lead to an eternity.
