Point of View
As a mother, former teacher and a professional portrait painter for more than 20 years, it has been my privilege to enjoy the company of children.  I see them as fashioned in the image of God and, therefore, of inestimable worth.  However, it is impossible to ignore the state of many children in contemporary America.  Abandoned, marginalized, used, alienated, neglected, disposable -- having become both the abusers and the abused.  Currently in progress, the "Endangered Series" consists of works that express my concern for the young.
