DescriptionThere are children who receive the best of everything money can buy. There are other children, at least equally fortunate, who, because of parents, teachers and other adults who love them, receive the best inspiration. Sometimes humble circumstances make humble gifts extraordinary. Sometimes humble circumstances can be the magical places that make everything possible. The children in this painting are lucky like that. Their teachers worked miracles and they are inspired.
