Lions Wearing Glasses

 

by Linda Diane Taylor

In creating this whimsical painting of Lions Wearing Glasses.  I saw it as  a gift honoring the Lions International and Lions Clubs long term commitment to sight programs aimed at preventing blindness and providing service.  The original  painting hangs in the Birch Bay Hostel in Bay Horizon Park, Blaine Washington.

After Audrey Roll

After Audrey Roll,  originally Audrey Roll was planning on creating a relief of the Lions wearing glasses.  Illness forced her to abandon the project.  The drawings were given to Linda Diane.  Linda honors Audrey with the signature.

It is hopeful this painting will eventually find a home in a very public place, so more will be aware of  the Long Time Commitment Lions International has to preventing blindness and assisting those needing eye care.
