Art House - Brooklyn, N.Y.

I painted these little gems for Art House in Brooklyn, N.Y. and these little mixed media pieces were done using genuine copper leafing, vintage papers, graphite and acrylic. They measure 4 x 4" and can be hung individual or as a group. They are part of a small paintings project. I can paint these little gems all day long. I have fun with a small format and I can mail them easily. So guess what? I need to donate a few to my favorite causes. Next on the list is Doctors Without Borders. I have given in the past and feel that it's time again. It is such an amazing organization that it really strikes a cord. They help people whose lives have been threatened by violence, neglect and catastrophe. Give if you can to any organization, even if it's your time. It dosn't have to be money or gifts etc.... Your time is very valuable!

More Paintings For Donations

I usually donate a few times a year and lately I have been very consumed with my new business, so my heart tells me it's time! I love the feeling of giving back, it doesn't always have to be in items/products or monetary. We at times give of ourselves which is equally as important.  This piece was donated to Doctors Without Borders a couple of years ago. I most recently donated to Haiti and I wish there was more I could do. The next step for me is to actually get involved physically.
