July 2004 Diary of an artist in Bethlehem |  |
|  | | Paul Gent takes a snapshot of what he sees whilst in Palestine. |
|  | Leicestershire artist Paul Gent is spending the summer in Palestine working with families whilst creating some stunning art - read his diary. |
 | |  | Wednesday 23 June Started work at Children's SOS village - an orphanage for Palestinian children. There are 12 houses in the village each with one 'mother' and nine children.
The space is a haven of comfort and security, amongst plants and trees. The families work as real families and even when the children grow up and leave SOS at 14-years-old, they are still members of the family and the mother expresses great pride in their children's achievement at university.
