This is one of California painter Nick Kosciuk's most beautiful and expressive oil paintings of orphaned children in Belarus. What inspires Kosciuk the most are these children. ("He takes with him a generous portion of the proceeds from art sales and donates it to several orphanages. He gives with no strings attached. all of his paintings, Kosciuk says that he is trying to capture the children's beauty, resilience, and strength as well as their vulnerability, fears, and loneliness. "They don't have a past to draw comfort from," he says. "And there is no such thing as hoping for an exciting future. Whatever it is, it will be hard. I'm just trying to show them how important they are." - Southwest Magazine.)

Nick Kosciuk's paintings are in many public and private collections in North and South America, Europe and Japan, including the private collection of Bill and Melinda Gates.
