Great video, Lainie. I also wondered about Miro’s name. Thanks for sharing! I love Miro’s art, too! Also, Paul Klee!

Hi Lainie,
I loved this video message! The way you tell your story is full of tension and emotion, well done.
The part about the millions of bees is great, it shows how you were really struck down when your relationship to art was crushed by this narrow-minded teacher. “Art is stupid!” I am so glad years later you bumped into Miro and became wide awake again.Emiel

Came across your site while doing some research on my family. My family is originally from Barcelona. Enjoyed your story!
