Dear Members of the Oakville Painting Studio.
First of all I would like to give a huge applause to all the participant in the 3rd Year Anniversary exhibit in the Visual Arts Mississauga. It was such a fantastic event where all of you displayed your valuable art works. Themes where so diverse: from still life, to landscapes; from animals to
impressionist or abstracts....all of them w

The themes where so diverse: from still life to landscapes, from animals to flowers, from abstracts to impressionists... all so wonderfully exhibited.
I have been tremendously lucky to find kids with such an amazing potential. They are all not only creative and fun to be with. They are also excell students in their schools and in after school programmes. Some play an instrument like violin or piano, some can sing, dance or do excellent in school!.
I would like to thank also all the parents that have supported their kids, and especially the Moms who dedicated some time to help set up, as custodians and dismantle the exhibit.
It sure paid off because the exhibit was such a success!
It is so important for us to know that we are able to raise kids with such an integral human soul.
Art is important because it shows that we are able to feel, to sense the beauty in a colour, in a shadow,... in a simple leaf floating in the air.
It makes us different from other species and defines us as human beings in all the extension of the WORD!
I am so grateful to have been by their side during this time of their lives. Some will take different paths, but no matter what they do or where they will be, I am sure that the memories they take along with them from their work at the Painting Studio will remain. I will have them all in my heart.
