ARTIST TODAY- WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN
I have a heart for children who are underprivileged and who live in inner cities! Children who can't get a good education because of the school system! I not only care about children in Detroit where it is needed most in Michigan, but children in general.
I grew up in Detroit, and as a child living in the slums of Detroit there wasn't many educational opportunities. And even today schools are being torn down in Detroit. Detroit is # 1 for poverty rate!
I hope that Detroit gets better, but I do have memories of the slums and vacant houses. Children can't help where they live, they do need a chance for higher education so that they can rise higher than where they are. Children are the future and the earth will became a better place if they get the education that they need. Detroit will become a better place if people lend a hand to the educational system.

Hello D!! Its Charmaine over from A Charmed Life! Thank you for your very thoughtful comments on my blog posts. It's been a bit of challenge getting through some tough times recently, but this blog community has definitely been inspiring and truly supportive. Your illustrations are great and have a real positive message. You seem to be one of those rare individuals who can really make a difference in this world. Good for you. My parents and rest of my family live in Wixom, just outside of Detroit so I know that the state has been hit pretty hard and most are down and out!
ReplyDeleteI hope we can be in touch....I sell my art through gallery shows, word of mouth and soon-to be-open webstore online! It's slow and tedious but rewarding. Talk to you soon..
All the best, Charmaine
