I love how social media makes this world a smaller place...allowing us to "meet" people, who by virtue of geography, we otherwise may never have crossed paths with.
This time it was via Instagram that a mom of a couple of Sandy Hook School students reached out to me. She asked me if i would be willing to donate my art to a brand new gallery in Newtown, CT called Healing Newtown...A place to heal through the arts. It will provide a place for the community to come and reflect and enjoy the art that has been sent from all over the country and the world. The space will also hold performances and workshops and art therapy classes for any and all who would like to participate.
Yes. Absolutely. My pleasure. My honor. With all my heart, yes!
Specifically, she asked for this painting, which she said spoke to her heart...
and so...my original painting is on it's way to Newton now...
with my love and prayers for healing...
God bless you, Newtown.
