PETALS OF HOPE<\/strong><\/p>\n

When I was approached in 2022 by Heartland Hospice Board Chair, Angela Sereda, her vision that was shared by her and her board members immediately struck me.\u00a0 Their dream to enhance hospice care in our region was inspiring and I was intrigued to participate.\u00a0 Their goal was to add more palliative care beds and renovate their outdoor garden for a peaceful retreat for residents.\u00a0 In whatever way I could offer my artistic hand, I was on board.<\/p>\n

My father was in palliative care nearly twenty-five years ago. Firsthand, my family experienced the care that is needed, and was blessed to have received the care that was given.\u00a0 The difficult reality is likely that other loved ones will need the same loving care in the future.<\/p>\n

Angela approached me with the vision to create a piece that would represent the heart of their organization and that the work of art could be used to gift the major donors of the foundation, and the memory\u2014and hope\u2014that it embodies.\u00a0 The story of Arlene Kolosky was shared with me and her journey in May of 2013.\u00a0 Arlene began to advocate for Hospice Palliative Care in Moose Jaw as she herself was facing her end-of-life journey.\u00a0 As I learned more about Arlene, her love of Asiatic Lilies stood out.\u00a0 This was the clear choice for the symbol meant to embody the logo of the organization through art.<\/p>\n

Lilies symbolize hope: and it became the story that I wanted to paint.\u00a0 As the painting evolved, I could understand how the organization chose to use a simple white lily that portrays so much meaning for the dream that Arlene had many years ago and how this board continues to commit to making her dream\u2014and their dreams\u2014come true.<\/p>\n
