About The Artwork
By Kristen Dahlgren and Jay Blackman Never a show to shy from tough subjects, "Sesame Street" is tackling America's opioid epidemic head on, revealing that Karli, the little green Muppet with yellow hair, was in foster care because her mother suffered from addiction. Karli will explain on "Sesame Street in Communities" that her mom "was away for a while because she had a grown-up problem." The "Sesame Street in Communities" project offers supplemental content free to providers, parents and caregivers, designed for kids who are often the unseen victims of addiction. "How they're impacted by addiction is often something that we don't hear about or, more importantly, don't hear [in] a children's voice or perspective," said Jeanette Betancourt, senior vice president for U.S. social impact at Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit organization behind "Sesame Street." Karli told NBC News that "I love my mom so much" but that "she couldn't take good care of me because she was having such a tough time." IMAGE: Karli the Muppet Children can relate to Karli and use her as a way to open up dialogue about the drug crisis in America, 'Sesame Street' says.Zach Hyman / Sesame Workshop It's a story familiar to Salia Woodbury, a 10-year-old girl whose parents battled opioid addiction and are now in recovery. Salia joins Karli in some of the episodes to reassure children of addicted parents that they're not alone. "We all feel, like, our big feelings inside," Salia said. But "we're strong, and we can all work together to go through it." Jaana Woodbury, Salia's mother, said opioid addiction is "a huge crisis." She said the special series "kind of takes away the stigma and the judgment, and it encourages people to be open-minded."

O.K.,good enough ANGELA RUTH D'AGOSTINO Artist's Statement PLEASE ENJOY WHAT I HAVE TO SHARE. or buy a piece if you wish.My dad was a barber. My mom was a florist. So, boom... I was born surrounded by creative spirits. I had a proclivity for the arts as an indication that my life work would evolve as an artist very early on. During high school and college I landed jobs in the commercial graphic arts field. I did advertising using many manual tools of the trade like paste up and lay out, photo retouching, stat camera, IBM composer, pen and ink drawing and illustration. My work then was diversified and fast paced for the corporate world. I was a young artist, and an extension of management. Alas, I moved into fine art. The majority of my work now is focused on painting. My paintings are seen, shared, purchased and collected worldwide. You can find me on Saatchionline.com, Behance.net, ello.co in addition to other various sites and places. I like to share my work with people who are unafraid to show and display a certain point of view. I am offering a bold and strong type of artwork. My original work always revolves around trying to understand the human condition in some way. I can trust folks to add their own opinions, comments and life lessons to the viewing experience. My art is super personalized and uncommon . Most pieces are hardwired to start a conversation, and human connection. That is what , if fortunately composed, my art does. I support the conversation. My paintings usually have a capturing and asteatotic voice. Please enjoy the 2023 new work. You will not be disappointed when you purchase one or more from this diverse mix. They are guaranteed to add interest to your interior walls. If you are finding it difficult to toe the line or just impossible to go along to get along? then let it be known, you are my collectors. As you view this work It is my warmest wish that you are curiously inspired to find your own path to this party we call life. Bring along some art. - Angela Ruth Dagostino, artist- ===============and, also====================
