“The children never stopped smiling the entire time he spent with them…” We talked and shared with one another about our lives, families, schools, languages, his art, my art, Native American Art and African Art…Segun was punctual, enthusiastic, flexible, friendly, easy to talk and laugh with, he related well with the children and myself. In the end, one painting was touched by all and all hearts were touched by Segun and his Yoruba culture!”
