TATYANA'S WORLD
Cafe Gallery, Au Bon Pain, Main Lobby
Eleven year old Tatyana learned to paint during her 7 month stay at Children's Hospital Boston. "When I paint with acrylics, I sit down with a blank canvas and just let my mind paint. Sometimes I use pictures as inspiration, other times I use my dreams of going to Hawaii or being anywhere outside of the hospital to inspire me."
Read a letter from Tatyana.
Tatyana paints with Hole in the Wall Gang Camp's Hospital Outreach Program.
