The Memory Project

I had the privelege this year to use my talents to help make one of a kind gifts for orphans at the Tibetan Children's Village. Students were instructed to draw the orphan they were assigned and write them a letter, in hopes of a response, and maybe contact would be kept. The project is something special and incredible, and the portraits are one of the few gifts these children will ever receive. I will have completed three by the end of my junior year.
