An Artist Discovers His Passion For Drawing At Age 58

John Herz found a new passion late in life...age 58 to be exact. For the past 6 years, John has worked as a graphite pencil artist. He never realized he had artistic talent until prompted by his family to take up drawing as a stress reliever. Now, he dedicates his life to his artwork.

He has had great success selling his pencil drawings online and in art galleries throughout New England. His favorite subjects are everyday people he meets on the streets of New York and he hopes to evoke emotion with each one of his paintings.

"I'm a firm believer in encouraging people to do what they love," John advises. " If you have any interest in any art form, go for it! You never know where it will lead you."

He has appeared at the Pottery Barn and Walt Whitman Shops for a Pop-Up art show. Part of the proceeds from the new, never before seen pieces, will benefit United Veterans Beacon House, shelters for Veterans.

Young Inventor Helps Kids Find Comfort in Hospitals

** To commemorate Kid Inventors Day, OGTV is sharing this story about a young girl who redirected her fear from a hospital stay into the creation of a device that makes these visits a little less scary for other kids in the same situation. **

The only good part of a hospital stay is the end of it – the moment you go through the doors and know you are heading home. As stressful as this can be for an adult, it is exponentially worse for a young child. Ella Casano was one of those kids suddenly plucked out of normal life by an unpronounceable diagnosis and thrust into a daily routine of painful treatment, fear-stricken parents and the prospect of long periods away from home. Though she was really scared, she saw her situation from a kid's "how do I beat this" perspective and envisioned something that could make the experience just a little bit easier for herself and others like her.

Autistic Basketball Champ Teaches Kids Hope With Hoops

How would you feel if a team of medical specialists reviewed your background and declared, at the age of 5, that because you had Autism, you would never be successful academically, that you would likely not graduate from high school much less go to college, and that being an athlete was out of the question. Anthony Ianni faced that future and just flat out refused to accept it – he ignored what the doctors said, set goals, worked hard, and created his own destiny.
