On my feed today from an exmo acquaintance in one of our support groups, this touched me, thought I would share:
"Some of you may remember that I came on here to rant about a decision my parents made to NOT do a portrait painting of my youngest daughter because she did not get baptized in the LDS Church. My father did portrait paintings for each of the other 4 kids although those paintings had never been explicitly tied to baptism."
"Out of this group stepped up someone who was a total stranger to me. Olena Owens. Upon hearing my story, she offered to do a portrait for my daughter. That portrait arrived this past weekend. My daughter could not have been more thrilled. My daughter felt very special and excited to not only have her own portrait finally hanging alongside those of her brothers and sisters...but also one that was in a style that was uniquely hers."
"I cannot thank Olena enough for such am amazing act of love for a little girl she did not know other than to publicly express my gratitude to her and encourage others to support her and her artwork."
