Julie Kleven, owner of Annex 25 in Westfield, New York, was with her daughter at a painting event where the task was to paint your story on the blank canvases they had been given. It had been years since Julie had painted and tapped into her creative side. Previously she was highly recognized and awarded for the beautiful backdrops she created as an interior designer. That day she sat with extreme reservation, uncertain what to create, until she dipped her paintbrush in the ink and started telling her life story.
