A Local Artist Enourages David


Here is a picture of one of the artists whose banner design won a $1,000 and has been hanging over the Dundas streetscape this summer.
His name is Mark Neilson. I (Len ) met him one day as I was taking down David's display. David had gone to catch his bus and Mark commented that he liked the clean and simple lines of the work. He commented that they would make great designs for T-shirts and other items like mugs. Little did Mark know that David's dream includes just such an enterprise. Great minds think alike. This encounter with a talented local artist was very encouraging and especially so since the compliment he p[aid to David's work came before hew knew of David's immense physical limitations.

Thank youMark Neilson for your great encouragement and many blessings to you and yours.

Some of Mark's wining baner can be seen at
