Description

"My True Colors" is a memoir by artist and painter Jane Knaus as she looks into the rearview mirror of her eclectic life story.

At first, Jane didn't believe her life was too unusual. Countless other children had parents who survived the Holocaust. Many other families lived in exotic Third World countries. And a devastating amount of people suffered from abuse as children.

These experiences have shaped Jane into the person and artist she is today. She now lives a life of creativity and purpose. This memoir also includes fifty years' worth of creative endeavorswatercolor and acrylic paintingsthat Jane has created throughout the years.

"My True Colors" goes to show that everyone has a story, and everyone's is worth telling.
