Medford artist, known by the alias JDel Dragonwhaler, is hoping to use his talents to create an artist workshop within the community.
Dragonwhaler uses pens, crayons, colored pencils and markers to create his art, using permanent tools to challenge him to incorporate any mistakes into his artwork.
He hopes to bring similar challenges to his anticipated workshops, inviting local artists to have fun and explore their talents at a deeper level, while broadcasting videos of the workshops on social media. Some ideas he has brainstormed include turning shapes into animals and turning letters into cartoon characters.

Written by Medford resident Gloria Barone Rosanio, illustrated by her husband Jim Rosanio and inspired by her 7-year-old granddaughter Payton Leigh Pettit, this book takes the reader through the nightly adventure of Allie and its sidekick, the three-eyed cat named Flash.
