Artist Comments

Lee Asheroff describes the meaning if life and peace in her own words~

"At 98 years old I am a great believer in healing. I’ve never been depressed in my life. When things are bad I believe that they will get better and they usually do. When life is good I  remember that it can turn, but that does not depress me it only makes me stronger.  I believe that I can overcome anything that happens.  I love my children and am proud of the people that they have become— compassionate, caring, loving and always willing to help someone in trouble. If this is my legacy I am content. I believe in people and the strength in working together to achieve peace. I don’t expect to see this in my remaining years but hopefully my children will. We must come together to make the world better for our future generations. We can choose acts of kindness everyday to make a great impact for a better world. We need to teach the younger generation to care for the earth and every living thing on it."
