Philosophy
No such thing as " Cant do art"! Art expression comes from the soul not the eyes....It links us together to create unity, equality and a balance between the differences we all have as individuals. Here at ARTLYNKS we are all artists with much to express and share with the world. People with any ability or skill level are welcome to do art .
Turning disability into ability, creating connections and friendships that last a lifetime...
