Something Positive!

Toy Frog, 6 X 6, Acrylic on Canvas

I've had a strange week. It's kind of brought me down.

But, I have a lot to be thankful for and I am living my dream. It's time to turn negative into positive.

I've decided that I'm going to auction a painting every month for charity. I'm not sure of the dynamic yet, but I will probably publish a list (12 months/12 charities at a time). If there's interest, I may open this to other artists to participate in, as well.

I've donated paintings for charity in the past and it's a good feeling. I already have a short list of charities I feel strongly about, but it's not enough. Does anyone have any suggestions? If so, please leave them in the comments.

Also, I'd like to take a moment and thank everyone who has stayed with me through my long hiatus. It makes me so happy to see people comment. I'm just getting back into my studio, and updating my blog is becoming a huge priority. I can't wait until I have the chance to read everyone else's posts over my morning coffee again. I'm looking forward to a lot of great things in the future.
