Collection: I PAINT FOR GOOD

NEMS FOUNDATION FOR THE ARTS present project: “I PAINT FOR GOOD“ 

"We acknowledge that ART brings people together. Free expression is the key to everyone's healthy and free existence.

Our main activity will be to advocate and aid all the children of the world equally and to have a comprehensive approach while raising awareness about what it means to be human first before gender type, wealth, and style; to live happily with a healthy mind in a healthy body, against all odds through the science of art-making. With our ART program, our children will learn that each project needs time, and comes with a cost, amount of labor, intelligence, and also creativity. Our children will engage in developing their creative side and adapt it to their daily life through the mediums found in art. We want to add on where there are gaps in the education system. The children will learn how to use a computer, paint, and draw digitally as well as using brushes and pens. We will integrate computer literacy into our artistic program at a very early age with an up to date technology. As a start, we will gather our efforts to care for the ones who need us most in our community by implementing artistic activities, while attending to both the typical and the children with special needs. Under the same roof, the children will be offered the same and equal opportunities to express themselves freely. 

We will bring awareness about how to live in a healthy body with a healthy mind. We know that the rise in the number of children born with special needs, ( AUTISM, DOWN SYNDROME, and other challenges ) may be caused by excessive GMO and prescription drug consumption, and Carbone Dioxide pollution. We work with all the children and care for their participation in fun and artistic activities, while they can learn how to create a dialogue. To communicate and share their thoughts, and emotions freely, without shame, guilt, or fear. They will learn how to express their thoughts and connect to their inner self reaching out to their deepest memories and then liberating them through the arts. ART is a science, not a hobby with the stigma of "the starving artist". We believe that art should be re-introduced into school education under the label of a new science of life, free expression, with the goal of teaching how to grow up with a healthy mind in a healthy body.  At Nems Foundation For The Arts (a registered non-profit organization (501(c)(3) ), we want our children to grow with many skills including rich memories with friends and family. We believe that today's technology and social media are gearing away valuable time from families and parenthood. Marketing took over our children's individuality. 

Please join me in this mission to RE-INTEGRATE, art as a science, and let's teach the basics, teaching the most common things with the arts. 

Our philosophy:

The Science of Art Making, 

• At Nems Foundations For The Arts, we strongly believe that EARLY INTERVENTION in learning the science of art-making and learning a skill could greatly encourage our children to learn more things about themselves,  and do better as adults. When they grow up feeling loved, understood, cared for, and cherished, they tend to focus more on the real meaning of life, and their purpose.
• When our children connect to their true selves, they grow up with a sense of fulfillment. What connects us as humans is our universe, our mother nature, our souls, and our bodies.  
• We strongly encourage teamwork. When the children are all working on the same ART project, they can see it coming to life in real-time, and get a sense of achievement before their eyes. This is exactly what we look forward to seeing: the fuel for continuity in achieving a common goal while enjoying a slowed-down cadence.
• We will not use "the scarcity model" to use pressure while they are active, we will create a relaxed and soothing environment where they can learn about the fundamentals of what is important in life: their own Equilibrium 
• We encourage the thought of taking the time for what matters.
• They will learn from their own mistakes. We will guide them through their free expression and teach techniques while encouraging them to reach their goal with assertiveness regardless of failure. We consider that making the right decision doesn't mean that it has to be a win/win situation. 
• In ART un "Raté" is a "Chef D'oeuvre"!! Because the art in the art-making is essentially based on overcoming our little-artists' own fears and going beyond their comfort zone to create something new. In this case, there is no awkwardness involved but more a new individual authentic revelation, a new step forward towards more, which we celebrate each time.  In the end, everyone will be able to create something innovative and different every time raising adding value to their capability.  
• The little-artists will learn how to win and how to lose, they will accept the defeat as much as their wins!
• They will always work with one or more partners,
• We will meditate daily, and learn about the functioning of the body and mind and its connectivity
• We will NOT encourage competition but we will acknowledge duality and use it as fuel for their achievement. 
• Throughout the program and to encourage equality, our little-artists will collaborate in the art-making with different partners each time. This will help to expand their learning capacities and the art of sharing knowledge and information, learning the art of interaction and communication. 
• In our yearly program while learning new skills they will learn about being themselves, to reflect on their equality within the community of humans, as intelligent species who are able to do good.
• When we act together, we grow together, we thrive together and we build a strong community and a better quality of life.

The operation:

What we teach: the Nems Foundation For The Arts offers educational activities, such as digital 3D modeling and animation, film making and editing, story writing, fine art, music, choreography, yoga, martial art, counseling, and comprehensive support to families.

Who we are: Our local community-based, non-profit organization, will join the effort of the local elementary schools, high schools, and local recreational establishments, reaching out to all our children through fun and uplifting activities to raise awareness and simultaneously provide educational services teaching new artistic skills and organizing outings and events for both: the students and the young adults with special needs.

Where we will operate: In association with elementary schools and high schools, throughout our well-studied and organized curriculum, we will integrate the people with special needs into the typical educational system and raise awareness simultaneously among the young and upcoming young adults who are the future spine of our community.

Our Mission: Our non-profit organization will fill in the gaps and extend the life of services provided by existing organizations, schools, and APD (agency for people with disability) related establishments. We believe that a strong non-profit for a great cause creates a strong community and uplifts the present daily living of all its members. Our children are our future, we must grasp the momentum and teach them how to provide for their own community at a young age. We will have a strong and very much engaged, hands-on future parents, educators, and providers, with skills and a strong and higher comprehensive level of understanding about the people with special needs while learning new skills and piling up great memories. Our organization will engage to construct a strong community, and powerful task force that is aware, ready, and willing to face the obligations required to live with a person with special needs with no fear and shame or discrimination from others, therefore ready to accept, to commit, to bond and act at an early time in their parenthood and their engagement with people with special needs. More importantly, our organization will vigorously use every way possible to spread awareness: social media, media, publicity, events, and festival, virtually and physically.

The Purpose: The organization is organized exclusively for educational purposes under Section 501 (c)(3) of the internal revenue code.

Our Curriculum: By combining contemporary and fun art activities, music, and sports to fit within the interests of all we can create special memories and teach new skills to all our kids with no difference in color, gender, or developmental disabilities. Create opportunities for young students for a special and unique experience, and create a friendly and loving environment for ongoing transparent dialogue with our children while they are growing up. Raising awareness takes time and hard work. We must spread the word out about what it takes and what is needed to care for people with special needs while creating positive memories at an early age, integrating the information into the educational system will have a stronger impact. We must act now to create a better and stronger foundation for our community. Aside from the new artistic skills our non-profit organization will engage to provide the youngsters the information to gain the skill for becoming adults with a true comprehensive sense of what it means to be a person with special needs and to live with a disability at an early age. We will share the skills of giving, sharing, and loving unconditionally in real-time.

Getting equilibrium: We will help to find a balance where the weight is leaning on one side. 

Siblings’ support: Our organization will work diligently to raise awareness also about the siblings of children with disabilities and create a hub where they can also feel supported, loved, and acknowledged! We speak very little about the ones who stay in the shade, the siblings are as much impacted as the children with disabilities in this case, but they are the ones we speak the least about. Very often and most likely, while parents are busy taking care and aiding the one with special needs, the ones who are born typical (”normal'')  find themselves left out, alone, and counting on their own abilities only at a young age to grow up! It is a very difficult life experience to be on the front line and witness such an experience, finding no support around. This can be very destabilizing. Our organization will provide a clear understanding in schools and in the community of what it is, how it feels like to be a person with special needs; and how it feels like to be a member of a family where there is a person with special needs; how to find balance without resentment, fear or shame of expressing their feelings or of transparency. Sharing information about this social matter will bring the siblings together and they may also find support amongst each other if awareness is brought to the community and shared with the right message of hope, and love for the sake of everyone's prosperity. 

Parent Support: With awareness and informative actions, we peacefully erase discrimination and fear from solitude. Our organization will provide a safe haven, a hub where families receive strong emotional support. By coming together, we will help them lift up their spirit and the weight caused by solitude induced by the discrimination from other families, establishments, or businesses where they aren't welcome. 

Our Goal: If we were to bring awareness and the “know-how” (facon de faire) and make sure that we teach the community at an early age that we are all equal under one God, then there will be no difference whether we are born typical or with special needs humans. Then our mission would have attained its goal where young people with disabilities grow up and live with purpose and hope for prosperity.

Personal Statement:

While painting I withdraw into meditation. I reflect on the gift of life, my children, their purpose, the world, and the connectivity that binds us as humans on Earth and as a Whole. I see pain, I see joy, and I believe that both phenomena are connected. For us, adult humans witnessing both, and not working to bring equilibrium between them is a huge mistake, a lack of wisdom, wasted energy, and wasted lifetime! Wisdom comes from within, I believe that we don't need to be educated to be wise, we just need to have a true comprehension of our purpose in life, why are we living, find our mission, recognize the connectivity and be accountable. Take action, be active where we can do good, and better.

The Idea is to offer back to the universe what the universe had given me: the art of painting, to bring joy to the ones who need it the most, in my community as a start, and perhaps grow with no borders when the time is right, and with your help. To offer my work for good is a thrilling inspiration, rejoicing in itself. I feel fueled up and ready to conquer! I am passionately inspired! I am very happy to offer my work for a real cause that can change the life of many youngsters to learn about life with love and transparency. The questions are:  WHERE to start? HOW can I change certain phenomena,? WHO can I speak with to bring goodness? WHY will give my valuable? (please read) WHAT can I offer more? I always like to push the limits, of what I can offer more by dedicating not only my artworks but also my time, my life, and my money to this non-profit for a GREAT cause!

So I will first work with the children with special needs to integrate them into the community while teaching youngsters in elementary schools arts and crafts, uniting both under the same roof. Then the second cause is to help Mother Nature Breth, I will work to raise awareness to reduce the carbon dioxide with the gallery climate coalition.

As a parent of a young man with autism I have witnessed for the last 27 years, discrimination and abuse of power towards innocent lives, children, and families.

The people with special needs count on their support system to provide safety and services to keep them clean, fed, and active, in their own community. And also they need like anyone else to feel loved, independent, and with a purpose in life.

In my non-profit organization, I will ensure that every member will work diligently in servicing others while securing a fun and safe haven for all. 

Where every person involved, organizers, teachers, volunteers, students, and the people with special needs receive the comprehensive skills to create positive energy. To gain the will to construct for themselves and to follow a well-organized routine according to their own likes and abilities, they wake up with the only motivation to thrive! I will work on every detail to ensure that all children are treated equally and feel safe while learning new skills and engaging with others with kindness. To spread the word and widen the horizon for a better future and a stronger community. 

It is very important to me to help the children with special needs find their place amongst other typical children. This is where I find my purpose as a mom, a parent, and a true worker for my community: to all families and children in need of a friend to lift up their spirit and give them hope :) 

I started painting on my balcony during the pandemic I had no choice but to stage it as my studio. I purchased the art supplies and my husband build the most efficient easel you could imagine for the surface we were given: the balcony since I paint with oil to avoid the orders and the fumes from the chemicals so I stayed working outdoors. 

While being in confinement I realized that gas carbon dioxide is really killing us and our mother nature, so I was inspired and I painted: In the beginning”

Then the idea of painting on large-scale paintings came to me because I could express a full message as if I was painting a story, so I needed the canvas surface. Painting on a large scale and not being limited while painting in contrast to the reality that we were living in was a way for an escapade and then I went wild :)!

I dedicate my art to doing good. It rejoices me to be able to do something with the gift that I was born with to honor God, Mother Nature, our Earth, and our children who are our future. As a parent of two wonderful human beings sI waldo wants to cater to both equally and bring something to the table for all to benefit from equally as well.

So I have decided to offer my work for good.
