Benefit and Auction for Autism - Potential, Inc.

Please consider attending this annual benefit and auction event on Saturday March 29, 2014 to support Potential, Inc, a local school and clinic serving individuals on the autism spectrum. The event will be held at the Spring Mill Manor in Ivyland, PA. The impact this school has made on a good friend's family has inspired me to donate two pieces of artwork to the silent auction portion of the event. Please click HERE for information on purchasing ticket to the event by Tuesday March 25th. Can't attend? Please consider donating by clicking on the 'Donate Now' button. Here are the two pieces of my artwork being auctioned. All proceeds will benefit Potential, Inc.

Help Build a Home!

November is my month of giving thanks. The recent auction and signature fundraising event I participated in for technology in the school at Notre Dame High School was incredibly fun and and I was in awe of the generosity of bidders! It was my first year donating a painting as I mentioned in my previous post. I will definitely do it again next year! Many heartfelt thanks to the O'Donnell family for the purchase of the painting and the contribution it will make to the schools technology fund! I am thrilled to know it will be enjoyed in your home.

My next contribution will be to Habitat for Humanity Bucks County for their signature fundraising event on November 15th at the Manor House at Commonwealth in Horsham, PA starting at 6:30pm called Hard Hats and High Heels click HERE for information if you would like to attend. See photos of the beautiful event venue by clicking HERE. Below is my donation which I had so much fun painting! It will be part of the silent auction. I will be attending so hope to see you there :-)

Notre Dame High School Signature Auction Event

In addition to my September daily challenge, I have been working on two auction paintings. The first event is on Saturday November 2, 2013 at Notre Dame High School called "Puttin' on the Ritz". If you are attending the auction, look for my painting of the high school that will be part of the silent auction. If you are not attending the auction, but are interested in bidding on the painting, contact me at 267-980-2777. You can view all items and bid using BidPal by clicking HERE.

The view for the painting was taken from under the arch of the entrance to the football field during a sunny weekend afternoon when I was in the area of the school and the sun was setting. The glow of the light on the facade of the school accented by the fall colors in bloom were my inspiration. Since our introduction to Notre Dame six years ago we have witnessed the growth not only in our children but in the school as a whole. Notre Dame combines education for the mind, body and soul. I am happy to donate this painting and it's proceeds as a small token of my appreciation for the school, it's educators and administrative staff who make the school a great place to be a teenager.
