Real Life Inspirations – The Garden of Prayer
I am a kindergarten teacher, and I own a version of The Garden of Prayer. During my art history class I was able to bring in a blown-up picture of my painting. The students would not let me move on! They kept coming back. I was able to get them all post cards, and ten of the thirteen students would not take them home for fear of their parents or siblings taking them. So I allowed them to keep the post cards on their desks all year. Every time the students wanted “alone time”, they would go to their desks and enjoy them – or just get their feelings out. Not only has The Garden of Prayer created a special bond between my mother and me, but it’s also a sanctuary for my five and six year-olds. Thank you for touching our hearts and for giving them hope for the future.

Is this product on a hard solid board as I have had to return, to other companies, when they have sent a soft fold up material. I have completed two of your paintings in the past and found them very acceptable. They have been plaid products.
Thank you for your help.
