I was given an amazing opportunity to create a large piece for an Easter Seals gala in Toronto. The acrylic painting called "Essential Elements" is 40"x60". This piece was showcased at the dinner on May 12th and will be on display at Bruce Power to commemorate the 2010 Toronto Tribute Gala. I had choosen the milkweed to symbolize our connections and responsibilites to the children of easter seals ... I share with you the writting that went with the painting:"Essential Elements"
The Monarch Butterfly experiences many cycles of growth throughout its lifetime. Each unique stage brings them closer to reaching their full potential. Without the Monarch Butterflies, nature's living creatures would certainly feel a loss. The Monarch's greatness is made possible by the Milkweed plant.
Just as the Monarchs need the milkweed to exist, so do the Children of Easter Seals need our support. Our seeds of generosity and care provide enormous opportunity through the Easter Seals Summer Camp programs. It is here where the children experience new levels of growth - giving them wings to reach their full potential.
In this moment, the seedpod opens her heart-releasing a future filled with glorious potential ... a future that is worth our attention, our energy, and our investment.
