Thank You to everyone that supported the "Enfermera con Rolos" release a couple of weeks back. We raised over $4000 and donated the funds to the Cover-19 Emergency Relief Fund by the Mayor of NYC last weekend.   The image of the nurse has been spreading around and has even made the cover of our local newspaper, the Manhattan Times. 

As a gesture of appreciation, has converted the enfermera into a line drawing and is offering it as a colouring page for kids and adults as a free download. To download the page you can click here.  Please tag Peralta on social media, IG & Twitter @peraltaprjct, so he can see it. We would love to post it on a future blog post.

So much has been going on in our lives lately.  Covid-19 has changed out lives forever. Peralta a few weeks back was inspired to create a piece of artwork as a "Thank You' to all the health care workers that are on the front line. Seeing footage of the nurses pleading on the news for help and other health care workers being pushed to the brink inspired Peralta to create "Enfermera con Rolos" where 30% of the proceeds go to the Covid-19 Emergency Relief Fund established by the mayor of New York.  Today and interview with Tony aired on the local new Pix 11. Check out the interview with Marysol Castro below.
