* * * * * "Versatility, unpredictable and refreshing..." * * * * * quote from an art critic and professor of International art ~~~Dept.of Art in Duca, Italy
Welcome to my Gallery!
His Joy has tickled my heart and inspired my brush to dance His love onto my canvas...
I want my art to speak to you...
"As a servant of God" I strive to use my talents to meet the needs of those less fortunate. I provide three service ministries:
www.LaurieWithLove.com
www.Hands4Him.org
and www.Look2Day.org
Each one serves, abused, abandoned and "families and children at risk" by donating a portion of each purchase to sponsor orphans, children abused or with special needs, to fund programs and buy resources. It is a way to link the community in ministry. Together we truly become His hands and feet in the lives of children."
Will you join in the journey by making a purchase???? Or perhaps, you would like to catch the dream and build a dream for yourself? You can open your own Shopping Mall FREE and sponsor another child while building $$$ for yourself at the same time. It is a dream come true! Join in! Time waits for no one! Look2day and change the life a child forever! Catch the dream and build a dream for yourself too!
Blessings on you!
