Composers are Happiness!

Notice happiness cards are 3.5" X 2" mini pieces of art with space on the backside to write a little observation of something going right in the world. 
 
These cards feature Vivaldi, Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. Better images coming soon, but they are so cute I wanted to get them out here. 
 
 
I started making them for several reasons:
to share my mom's art
as a balm for the negativity in the world these days
to pay better attention to all of the great things my students do in their lessons
 
3rd set featuring work by Beatrice Powell, my mom, who was in art school in New York in the 1950s. She had a long career, worked in many different mediums,  was fluent in written and spoken Chinese, and is the illustrator for the Sarah and Nikolai Musicland series. 
 
Her artwork is beautiful and recipients of the cards have told me that they feel an easing around their hearts when the see it.
