Art From the Heart, For a Cause
Susan Korsnick, Pennsylvania artist, writer and coach, is selling
prints of her most recent work, Family, with 100% of the profit going to
the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital, in Australia. The hospital provides for the
“rescue and treatment of sick and injured koalas and release back to their home
range if possible.” Korsnick shares: “As bushfires rage across Australia, it is
easy to become overwhelmed by the devastation and unfathomable loss of life. Courageous
men and women are on-site doing what they can. Those of us far from the tragedy
feel it deeply and long to help in any way we can.”
In describing her work, she notes that the image represents all of
us holding the koalas with love in our hearts. The wavy symbol in the lower
background is the Australian Aboriginal symbol for fire, smoke, water and
blood. The larger symbol in the upper right is their symbol for family. To
Korsnick, the definition of family extends beyond bloodline to include all
beings the world over.
Ten-inch by 14-inch prints are available for $35. For more
