About Us
Empowering Seniors to Rediscover Joy Through Art
At Fenis, we believe creativity has no age limit. Our mission is to help seniors facing dementia, arthritis, or loneliness find calm, confidence, and connection—one colorful page at a time.
Our Story: Born from Love (and a Little Frustration)
When my grandma, a lifelong artist, was diagnosed with dementia, I searched for coloring books to spark her joy. But all I found were childish cartoons or overly complex designs. One afternoon, as we colored a generic floral page, she pointed to a blurry shape and whispered, “Look—my Fenis flower!” (her nickname for the phoenix, a symbol of resilience).
That moment changed everything.
I created Fenis to honor her spirit and the millions of seniors who deserve art that understands them. Every page is crafted with:
- Bold, nostalgic scenes (vintage cars, blooming gardens) to spark cherished memories
- Thick, tear-resistant paper that handles shaky hands or heavy strokes
- Ergonomic tools designed with input from occupational therapists
- Positive affirmations like “You are loved” to uplift and affirm
