A Little About Lily 

 

I've been charged with a great honor and responsibility: supporting the artistic growth of my amazingly gifted child.  I recently found an outstanding, highly-recommended art studio to nurture her budding talent - just as our living expenses increased dramatically. As a single mother it's challenging to simply make ends meet, and in order to provide my daughter with the arts education she deserves, I'm reaching out to her "public." 

Many of you are already fans of her work through the photos I share on Facebook - at 8 years of age, she's already bringing people joy through her drawings. With my own past in the performing arts, I know firsthand how vital it is to nurture talent in children, and I'm determined to make this happen for Lily even if my own individual means are financially limited. 

Lori Ryland's studio is geared to not only help students develop their technique, but to prepare them for a life in art. With her guidance, they have gallery shows, develop their portfolios, and even sell prints of their work. In the future, she can even help with applying for scholarships to art colleges, should they choose to go that route. Excellent art instructors deserve to be compensated well for their skills, and while her tuition is not 'cheap,' I'm sure it's a bargain considering its worth as a whole. 

If you've been moved by, amused by, or have otherwise enjoyed Lily's efforts in the past, I hope you'll consider pitching in a little bit (seriously, no amount is too small) to help her blossom. I cannot WAIT to see what she'll be doing in 5, 10, 15 years and beyond - it may be the mom in me talking, but I truly believe she has the potential to contribute incredible things to the world. Thank you for considering a contribution!
