This triptych painting was inspired by a very special little girl from Kenya named Mercy Atieno. Mercy, age 8, was orphaned recently after her parents both died of AIDS. She lives in a city where over 12 million children have been orphaned by AIDS, Most of them live alone in the slums in unbearable conditions. When asked to send Americans a "message in a bottle" depicting her deepest thoughts and desires, Mercy chose to draw us a picture of herself at her new home-Providence Children's Home- a non-profit school and educational orphanage in Kenya.
Thank you Mercy for reminding us all that there is nothing more valuable than home...our place to belong....our place to feel love...our sanctuary.
