Cindi Decker, from Florida, decided to take an art class. Her second painting was of an egret, and her son posted a picture of her holding her painting on reddit. He said she did not think people would like it. Swedish artist Kristoffer Zetterstrand saw the post and decided to paint the picture of Cindi holding her painting of an egret. Another artist, seeing Zetterstrand's post, painted a picture of him holding his painting of Cindi holding her painting of the egret.
Then the ball really got rolling, and now there is a family tree of paintings. Cindi has been dubbed the lady with kind eyes and the unofficial mom of reddit. Here are links to a story about the paintings and a family tree of the paintings. I think it is a great example of people from around the world reaching out and finding connections with others.
