"Wassily Kandinsky stated 'color is a power which directly influences the soul'. I have been with Sol Treasures for over 8 years. My world is much more colorful and creative now. Teaching art was not in my comfort zone. This quote from Vincent VanGogh fits my experience, "What would life be if we ha no courage to attempt anything?" The staff at Sol Treasures believed in me. Their belief helped my self confidence to grow. My students taught me more at times then I taught them! Frida Kahlo endured more then she thought she could. I too found I could ensure more. Sol Treasures, staff, and students added sunshine to my life at a very intense difficult time!
