This cheerful fellow instructs a Tai Chi class every two weeks at Gordon Manor, a remarkable care facility in Redwood City, California. When he steps to the front of his class this guy just lights up. He is obviously doing something he cares a lot about, and he does it well. An hour of graceful Tai Chi movements performed to the extent of their limitations along with Michael's light-hearted banter leave the group, many in wheel chairs, with better functioning limbs and charmed by his kindness, good humor and encouragement. A unique man. Painting size: 14 x 18 inches. Available.
