It was luck enough that I met Mrs. Kat Alli Oct 28 or 29, via a photo number I called according to a post of First Friday Art Walk. And she was the first artist and a chair of Department of Fine Arts and the Manager of Art Gallery who gave me for 3 hours to talk and to introduce something about my cross-culture and comprehensive art.
Then I was lucky to get an opportunity to have my 4th art exhibition in the USA at her art gallery and at her college.
With so much appreciation and a grateful heart, I went to her office on Jan 4 and we discussed how to do the post and how to work at her college in Feb, 2014.
For thanking her good insight to my work and effort, and for returning the good treatment of Springfield people, when she asked me whether I wanted to be paid. I said, if you have a fund to support you, I will be glad to be paid, if you have no it, then, I need not be paid.
Since I have given 101 classes free, I do not care for money for the last 1 month.
Even though my project needs money to support, the one month' teaching fee will not resolve the root problem. Right?
So, I am going to follow Jesus as my example, to touch and service as many target users as possible, to give my little and limited knowledge and skills to the local people, to help as many possible people as possible.
My own strength is small, but if everyone can gives a little bit strength to help, then the world will become much more beautiful, right?
I am sure, finally there will be a day, that I will get much more help and support from God and his Angeles... :-)
Mrs. Kat Alli is just one of the Angeles of the God.
