4/1 My first painting door visit
On 4/1 for about an hour me and a group of kids (Jack, Henry, Gaia, Amy, Lilly, and more) made sketches of what we wanted to paint on the door. Carin was there watching us do this. Since I missed the meeting with the people who are running this she filled me in on what we were doing and what we are doing this for. We were painting a door that had to be about New Orleans life, hope or NYC life. I came up with the idea of painting the word HOPE in bubble letters and filling them with Subay numbers and letters. Cameron was the one filming us sketching the different sections of the door we wanted to paint on. We decided that there are nine groups each group would get a spot that is shaped like a puzzle piece. This I felt was really fun, and creative and had a lot of meaning. We were painting this door for a house that the organization will be making. I think this is very good and helpful for the Katrina victims. The reason why I started doing this organization is because Sarah, my mom, and I think that I’m doing my organization’s work for them and not taking in what they do for our community. I feel bad but I think I need to switch over to either another guy in solar one or a whole other place. -David
