I believe that through creativity, we can change lives. That’s why I am using my art to raise awareness and funds for a cause that I care about. I’ve painted a series of works with two themes in mind:
First – water. It’s essential for all life, yet it’s so easily taken for granted. Water, and the creatures it sustains, are wondrous and beautiful. Thus, I’ve made these waterborne creatures the subjects of my artwork.
Second – restoration. At some point in the process, every art piece is intentionally damaged. I layer paint and paper. I use sand paper and sharp objects to distress it, creating unexpected textures. Then I repaint it – restoring it back to life.
In Africa they say, “Water is life.” But for many, unsafe water only brings sickness and disease. More children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation than almost any other cause – more than AIDS and malaria combined.
Now you can turn art into clean water, and help restore vulnerable children back to life.
Contact me to inquire about purchasing. 100% of the purchase price will go to Team World Vision. When you email, let me know which painting you are interested in. I will respond with confirmation of availability, and instructions for how to make a tax-deductible gift directly to Team World Vision.
