Doernbecher-Claudia Swanson Chapter

I donated a piece of one of my recent paintings from the series 30 Paintings in 30 Days, #2.

This is the third year I have done this and the feeling of donating one of my paintings in order to make money for a charity just gets better and better. Below is is the little insert that went along with the piece. The piece is above.



This is the third year that I have been invited to donate one of my original oil paintings to the Friends of Doernbecher, Claudia Swanson Chapter and with a great amount of pleasure I have tried to pick out the right piece again in hopes that it will raise as much money as possible. As an artist I always try to be fresh and original with my work with much the same eye and awe of a child's. As children have a whole world of possibilities before them so to do I when I approach a blank canvas. You have before you an endless world of possibilities. When sickness or ailment occurs a child might end up seeing the world before them differently. More challenging or limited. I hope that whatever change this piece of art will be a beautiful and positive experience on them for the rest of there lives. Much like the awe that special little creatures we call children have on our own lives.
