I really do think that everyone has some kind of artistic ability they just have to find out what it is. I also think that writing is a form of art but in a very different way. I enjoyed the read and wish you the best in life. Keep on writing.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful information. There is an artist in us all! What I do admire about what you shared is the fact of art being expensive for one. Secondly, individuals or organizations doing blessed-filled gestures like this to be a spiritual seed to someone else. An amazing thing.

I think when we write or do artwork we should always share part of who we are. I think that makes it better. Thank you for sharing this wonderful post.

You never cease to amaze me with that you write. Each piece shows a greater level of intelligence that one should follow in my book. Excellent.

Wonderful Gretchen. I have many paintings that I have done. I have given some away. I loved painting but I enjoy painting with words more. They can also comfort those in need. That sounds like a great idea Gretchen. How about posting your paintings with your work? I have been thinking about doing that myself. xsx Nancy

Hi, Gretchen.
What a wonderful article and such a giving act of kindness. I too am an artist and do see how the art of any kind can change someone's life. By painting an angel basketball player, you are giving a special gift to a child or sports enthusiast. Art is self-expression and I think what you're doing is beautiful.
Bye
Rosalyne :)

It sounds really wonderful Gretchen, we all have images painted on our souls, in our hearts, and held within us, I guess it doesn't matter, there are so many ways of painting portraits, I've always wanted to help give people hope, and art serves that purpose very well, well done, Gretchen thanks for this lovely testimony, blessings, Roy

Awwww, Gretchen, I was hoping you'd be giving us a link to see your own paintings. I've heard you mention your paintings before and would love to see one.

This is a good essay, Gretchen. Good luck with your new venture. It sounds quite fulfilling.
