Bedridden for a year with rheumatic fever during the second grade, Keith Wilcock spent hours upon hours drawing scenes of planes crashing.
His technique grew, and once he returned to school, he made his first painting for its art contest: a pirate ship.
Wilcock's teacher teased him for coloring the boat's sails purple, but his work still took the prize.
"It was far better than anybody else's, I must admit," says Wilcock, 84, chuckling amid dozens of acrylic and watercolor scenes on the walls of his Deephaven home. "And so I've been drawing and painting ever since."
