Children were introduced to the work of the artist Bren Bataclan, he created the project named “Smile Boston” in which he created hundreds of small paintings and left them all across the city for people to find. His goal was to develop something called “Kindness paid-forward”. Bren attached a note to each of his painting, the notes read: “This painting is yours if you promise to smile at random people more often" , he believes that a random act of kindness towards a person will motivate them into being kind to more people and so on.

Due to the pandemic we couldn’t very well go out and drop paintings around Brickell, so instead we decided to create small drawings with the goal of making people smile; and that we would share these drawings through the atelierium.
