After the classes, Mrs. Wanda Nava took me to see Mr. Brian Wilbanks - the Principal of Seymour R-II School and we took this photo by the painting that I sent to their school on Sep 18, 2013.
To be honest, when I went to Seymour R-II School in 2010, I did not meet Mr. Brian Wilbanks, even though I knew the event I went to his school would be approved by the principal. Then in 2013, during I worked at his school second time last Sep, I often met Mr. Brian Wilbanks, but I did not know who he was at that time. Even though Mrs. Wanda introduced both of us to know each other, I did not very understand the title of Mr. Brian Willbanks at the first time, because in my English text book, this position is schoolmaster. :-)
So that until Feb 21, 2104, before I left for Springfield, we did not take any photo. :- )
I was happy that Mr. Brian Wilbanks took me to the School Library, and my painting was just hung up on the wall by the gate. To be honest, in the past 5 years, I had given about 200 paintings to many places and many people in the USA, this was one of the 5 paintings that I have seen in the USA in my 5 travels, and this is one of the two paintings were fixed in a frames. So that I felt so kind and be respected in my heart indeed.
