Something Different

A Place to Bark ~ 12″ x 12″ x 1″ ~ mixed media on wood panel
I don’t usually do cute paintings, but this one is for a very good cause. I am currently showing several landscape and animal paintings at The Flatbread Company in Canton, CT. Flatbread’s philosophy is very community oriented and committed to helping organizations and charities raise money. Part of this approach invloves local artists who show their work and then demo a painting on two evenings during their show. At the end of the show, the demo painting is auctioned and the proceeds go to a charity of the artist’s choice.

My show is coming down this weekend, and on Friday night we will hold a silent auction of this sweet little painting. I will donate the proceeds to A Place to Bark, Bernie Berlin’s animal rescue. She is doing such an amazing job of rescuing animals from high-kill shelters, getting them the medical attention they need and fostering them until they can be properly placed. Please consider donating to her mission (because that’s truly what it is) and helping some of God’s little creatures who don’t have a voice of their own.

Anyone who happens to be in the area this weekend, please stop by and bid on the painting! The auction will run for three days, and in addition to helping a worthy cause, you can take home a really nice painting!
