Mr. McPrickles

Meet "Mr. McPrickles", my latest piece

He was accepted into Gallery Nucleus' Power In Numbers project and will go on sale this Saturday, April 23rd. He measures 5" x 7" (like all the PIN pieces) and will be $100. My proceeds from the sale will go to UNICEF. A portion of every sale, and they are priced at either $50 or $100, goes to benefit the artist's chosen charity.

AND once the piece is sold a button will go up under it saying 'Print Request'. If enough people request a print, Gallery Nucleus will go ahead and do a print run :)

It's a great project and there's tons of great work at very affordable prices. I'm honored to be included.

Mono No Aware

I finished my sakura painting and it's now up for auction on ebay. 100% of the proceeds from the auction will go to the American Red Cross to benefit Japan.

The title "Mono No Aware" is a Japanese term often associated with cherry blossoms and "used to describe the awareness of impermanance, or the transience of things, and a gentle sadness (or wistfulness) at their passing."

The auction ends Thursday, March 31st at 8pm PST. Enjoy, good luck and thank you for bidding :)

Sakura

Work in progress.

Once it's done, I'll be putting it up for auction through ebay and donating the money to the American Red Cross. A small contribution, but every little bit helps with such an enormous disaster. The people of Japan and their families and friends are in our thoughts and hearts.
