Note from the artist:
"Today was extra special. I had a chance to meet really great people at Smiling Crocodile--a school which helps children with very complex needs. I loved being with them as they sang, danced and they showed their superpowers. I could see the room was filled with bright spirits, all having very human experiences--and that can be difficult sometimes. Hopefully this painting will be of good use to them in the future. It is the beginning of a series of items that will be auctioned for the support of their new school. The new school will have state-of-the-art facilities including a garden, animals, colorful walls, wonderful teachers, assistants and a hospice with palliative care for those who will be in the progressive stages of life. These little angels really touched my heart today. I am grateful to be with so much goodness here." - April Popko
