COCO BEE ART VERNISSAGE

( LE VIRUNGA) MONTREAL, CANADA / DEC 2016
 

My Dearest Friends,

Here is the speech I was to teary eyed to give at the end of the vernissage. Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart to everyone who came in person and in spirit to my first art vernissage. Thank you to my amazing family that travelled with me to Montreal after heavy snow to set up. Most of all, thank you to my @Levirunga family for giving me a space to share something I only had in my dreams. It has only been only a year since I started painting watercolours and I could never imagined that something like this could already happen.This event is a reflection of how bright the stars truly glisten when you are surrounded by people that love you, believe in you, and so generously build you up from their hearts. Thank you for giving me a space in this world to share and to be me. My soul is now buzzed with optimism and hope for the future in a place that was dark and barren just a year before. And to everyone that has left comments of such kindness and encouragement, your love and support has been felt just as strongly. I could not have done it without you. Thank you for your continual support in all its different forms. Thank you for being a part of such a milestone in my life, in person or not. I hope to meet many more of you in the future!
Sending you lots of light, lots of love, and many many warm hugs.
Coco
