Introduction Tom Wills, 59, a Warren, Ohio, native now living in Cortland, comes from an artistic family, with his aunt and late mother being oil painters -- and his engineer father being able to draw straight lines without a ruler. His art abilities were dormant since high school, however, as work and family demanded his time. But in 2008 he drew a dog, and then another, and a few cats, and finally some human faces. That was nearly 470 pieces ago. Most recently he has dabbled in watercolor paintings and architectural renderings. He is using Facebook and his own blog at http://tomwillsproductions.blogspot.com/ to build his business, and has also done some charitable work. By day and night he is a newspaper editor in Warren, after doing it to death 35 years in Youngstown ('til the paper closed). Married 35 years, he has two grown daughters (Emily and Kara), a sorta-half-daughter (Rachel), one grandson, Anthony — and his beloved dogs Bella and Corly. His wife is Patty. She really wants you to know that! "This is an opportunity to share some of my favorite things with you."
