Name/Title
Agnes Ko - Bay Sunset - Cypress Golden GateDescription
Agnes had never painted anything until she came to the Cypress. She credits the wonderful AWE teachers for her achievements. She was born in Guangzhou, China (formerly known as Canton). As an adult, she followed her older sister and brother to the United States. She taught kindergarten in China and continued in that profession in the States. After retirement she travelled extensively with her brother, sister-in-law and friends. Her favorite memories are of St. Petersburg, Russia and Singapore.
She is a classically trained pianist, but has only played for her own enjoyment and that of her friends and relatives. She plays every evening at the Cypress in the Fine Arts Room. In addition to painting, gentle daily exercise and playing the piano, Agnes reads a lot. She is currently reading The Greatest Pianists: From Mozart to the Present.
