through Scrolls from China, an organization which
supports gifted child artists living in an orphanage
near Chongqing. The “Li River” scroll featured
in the banner above was painted by 15-year-old
Xiao Fan, a talented artist with a wonderful knowledge
of balance and landscapes. To learn more, visit
