LOOK AND REMEMBER A COMMISSION TO CHANGE 
by Marie taBonne 

A collection of original oil paintings resulting from her 
near-death experience. 

"I invite you to open your mind and heart and come with me on a journey to
the House of God Energy." 

>From the artist, about her journey: 

I am a published writer of hard and feature news, a weekly column and
technical engineering and advertising copy. I served in corporate America as
marketing director for an international manufacturing firm for ten years. My
professional background does not include an art education. I began painting
only AFTER the near death experience and sincerely believe I paint because I
received a gift of spirit to show others what I saw and to share the lessons
I learned on the "other side." I paint without brushes, using only my hands
and fingers. 

 <http://www.lookandremember.com/> You are invited to view Marie taBonne's
inspired works and attend a presentation by the artist at a reception on
Saturday, September 22, 2007 from 3:30PM until 6:30PM 

Selected works and her book will be available for purchase.  Healthy
refreshments will be served.

OR IMMEDIATE RELEASE September 10, 2007 

"Look and Remember A Commission to Change" Art Exhibit Opening Reception of
Original Oil Paintings Inspired by a Near-Death Experience 

The Green Bough to host a unique art exhibit 

Irwin, Pennsylvania - The Green Bough, located at 202 Fourth Street, Irwin,
PA 15642, announces the opening of a new art exhibit with 24 original oil
paintings on canvas from local Pennsylvania artist Marie taBonne. An
artist's reception and slide presentation is scheduled for Saturday,
September 22, 2007 from 3:30PM to 6:30PM. The event is open to the public
free of charge. Selected paintings and copies of Ms. taBonne's new book,
featuring a collection of her paintings with narrative descriptions, will be
available for purchase. 

Marie taBonne, who claims she visited heaven during a near-death experience
paints frowning Christs and scenes of heaven. She says, "Jesus is unhappy,"
with the world. The middle-aged grandmother from Punxsutawney dropped-out of
the corporate world to travel with a collection of some 65 of her paintings,
which depict her visit to a location she calls "life after life." 

According to taBonne, the message of her paintings is about "love," and how
people need to change the way they live their life on earth, if they intend
to get to the heaven she paints in vivid shades of blue and green. This
means following the teaching of Christ to 'love one another,' in this life.
"It's all about love," she says, "It's about making time to help others.
It's about the little things, like taking a bowl of soup to a sick neighbor,
or giving a hug to a person who is having a bad day. It's about finding
ways, making the time to show kindness and love rather than running the
other direction." 

In her slide presentation, she places the paintings of heaven in a
chronology of her near death experience, and tells her audience about her
life review. "In my life review I saw many missed opportunities, times when
I could have shown love and kindness, but was too busy to be bothered." She
talks about a scene from her life review which portrays an elderly woman
standing on the street corner waiting to cross with a bag of groceries
tugged under her arm. 

"I was on my way to the airport, and there I was hoping that woman didn't
try crossing in front of my car, because I was in such a hurry," she
recalls. taBonne says after seeing that scene during her life review, she
knew she had to change. "Now, if I see someone trying to cross a busy
street, I have to stop my car. If they have groceries or a cane or need
help, I not only have to stop my car, I have to get out and help them. I
just cannot ignore any opportunity to show a kindness, because I visited
heaven once, and I want to get back there in the next life."
