Poet and singer Leonard Cohen's artwork graces War Child Christmas card
Fri Dec 12, 4:56 PM ET
TORONTO (CP) - Poet and singer Leonard Cohen is displaying yet another artistic side this holiday season - his drawing of an angel watching over children is featured on War Child Canada's annual Christmas card.
Requests for cards are pouring in to the charity, which raises money for children in war zones around the world and works closely with the music industry to generate awareness, support and action for children's rights everywhere.
The artwork, Cohen's first-ever for a holiday card, is his second donation to War Child this year. Earlier, he contributed the song Anthem to the benefit album Peace Songs, which features more than 20 artists performing in support of the charity. So far, it has raised over $200,000.
"Only with donations and contributions of this kind have we been able to give everyone the ability and opportunity to support a good cause by buying holiday cards or CDs," says Samantha Nutt, executive director of War Child Canada.
"Leonard Cohen's generosity over the past year has been overwhelming and we really appreciate it."

Absolutely beautiful ~ I'll be ordering some. If they don't arrive in time for this year, they'll be sent next year. Of course, I'll be keeping and framing one for me 
. I love the footbridge, the water, and the mountains. The children ~ female and male, both there. The colours used simply, deep and bright. Lines flowing. Perfect. The angel is motherly with her protective dimensions. Excellent, Leonard. Divine. Thank you, Marie and Jarkko.~ Elizabeth
