Subject: In response to "I Can Do This"

Hi, Jeanne. I really enjoyed the art work on issue number 15. The old lady really showed that she could move that chair all by herself. I'm going to paint it an frame it for my parents.

What a wonderful idea! Send me a picture of the painting so I can put it up. jeanne

I'm so excited! Participatory Visuals is working. Srey Vivo gave a disposable camera to residents in an assisted living home; they took the picture; I painted from the photo; and now it inspires you to do a painting for your parents. YES! This is the way learning works. Would you see if your parents will loan us the painting for the Spring Exhibit this year? The Art Gallery worked out beautifully, and I'd like to include your painting this Spring.

love and peace, jeanne
