    Modern Day Renaissance Man was an article initially written about my therapeutic, art's program that spanned 12 years at the Market Street Art Center, primarily focused on kids 5 to 13 years old. It then evolved into special programs, used therapeutically for seniors, is currently being adapted into an app called ARTSKI that has been trademarked for a future game/art activity that assists even the nonartistIcally-inclined into creating beautiful works of art via a game that Alec Maslowski invented & taught.
