I spent the final hours of Monday evening working with men from the Syracuse Sudanese community while they painted their sculpted cows at Feats of Clay in Manlius. They will sell their artwork to help raise money for academic studies in America. As young men, it was common to use localized clay to create figurines that would become their toys, and tonight, the spirit was youthful again as immense concentration went to painting and telling stories. This throwback to childhood made me happy, especially for them. Art calms the human soul.
