Story

<p><span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; font-size: 0.86em;">I remember being in an art gallery abroad and I was standing very close to a painting enjoying the colours and the detail that I could see, when suddenly a firm grip was placed on my shoulder and I was drawn back from the painting and reprimanded for getting too close. Therefore I always thought that art was a closed world to me. Luckily Living Paintings came along and unlocked this wonderful world for me.</span></p> <p style="font-size: 0.86em; color: #333333; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">I want to help give something in return to Living Paintings for the tremendous amount that they have given to me. They bringing many vivid images to life through their tactile pictures and audio commentarys.</p> <p style="font-size: 0.86em; color: #333333; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">Please take some time to visit their website and read more about their work <a title="Living Paintings Website" href="http://www.livingpaintings.org/">here</a>.</p> <p style="font-size: 0.86em; color: #333333; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">Thank you so much for your kind support.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
