Loretta Madden was at the beach when she ran out of art supplies. No canvas, to be specific, and there was a problem. "I still felt like painting," she said. Her husband, meanwhile, was helping a friend install a ceiling fan. Why not use the old fan blades? And so she did. "I found them excellent to work with," she said. Thus was born a specialty. But Madden is used to reusing. She finds new uses for the art that people throw away. Painted flowers on a canvas? She turns it around. "Rather than buying all new materials, I find old art and paint on the other side," she said.
