It is rare to find artwork that touches your soul and reaches emotions that remind you of the beautiful nature of humanity. It is even rarer to find out that the artwork that has moved you has been created by a woman who happens to also have down syndrome. In doing research to find the extraordinary accomplishments that have been attained by these individuals, I ran across a woman who has the magical gift of being a wonderful artist who’s work transcends a condition she may have and reaches levels of talent that many other artists could only hope to achieve.

The woman’s name is Bernadette Resha (bio below) and I think she further exemplifies that our children, family members, and friends have boundless potential. We need to continue to show the world that they are only bounded by their environment and the the “ceiling” of their capabilities is as much an appeal to ignorance as the  historical thinking that the world was flat.

Thank you so much Bernadette and Gwen for allowing your Art to grace this site and to be able to share your talent and inspire visitors from all over the world.
