“My artwork is about the future colors and how these tiny colors can impact the future. Pastel colors really, to me, bring out nature. I like doing art because I can do whatever I want and no one will judge me.” – Emily from Hospital For Special Surgery #ArtWorksDaily
“I made my art in the playroom with syringes. I sucked up the paint and I squirted it on the canvas. This painting makes me happy because I love art and colors!” -Daniela from NYU Hassenfeld. #ArtWorksDaily
Sachi from Hackensack University Hospital wrote, “This is about a butterfly that likes bright colors. It throws my feelings into it which makes me feel good!” #ArtWorksDaily
“Banjo is a therapy dog that visits patients in the hospital. He made me smile when I was very sad, due to my consistent seizures. Knowing that a dog can visit you, sit on your bed, and make you smile, makes your stay at the hospital more pleasant.” Happy #NationalPuppyDay! #ArtWorksDaily
Today’s #ArtWorksDaily highlights Keila who shares, “Art lets me express how I feel because it doesn’t have to be perfect, it just lets you do whatever you feel.”
Today is #WorldPoetryDay and to celebrate we have Zachary’s beautiful poem about The Valerie Fund Children’s Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Saint Barnabas! #ArtWorksDaily
