PLEASE MEET STEVE:
I think most of you know Steve, he's been a dear friend on this page for about 9 years. He's such a beautiful and goodGOOD man.
When we first met he was living in a tent buried in a giant blackberry bramble, now he lives inside at DESC's Aurora House, wowWOW!! His room is an artist's room, wonderfully him!
Steve shares, "Art is a path for my personal betterment." Some of you have bought his art-work off of this page. Those moments were beautiful and meant the world to him, and to us too.
I want to tell you that Steve is having a tough time right now. His brother, who was living in their home town of Lincoln, Nebraska, just died. Besides the grief of losing his brother, he's worried about his mom for all the suffering she is going through losing a son.
To get through this time, Steve wants to do a painting, one that he can sell on this page. He then wants to use the money to pay piano movers to move a 'free' piano into the community room at Aurora House. He sees this as a gift to those he lives with, a way to pay it forward.
We are asking for art supplies for Steve. He could use small and large water color paper, water colors, and some good quality colored pencils. THANKS!!!
