"Magenta" now serves a larger cause




Magenta
, one of the acrylic sheet paintings I had listed on Etsy, will no longer be available online. Instead, I have decided to donate it to a charity auction sponsored by my alma mater, Harrington College of Design, to benefit DIFFA, Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS. So if you've had your eye on it and are in the Chicago area, come by the Marshall Field's building at 111 N. State Street this Friday, October 2 from 6-10 p.m. to place your bid.

Though I posted it before, here is a photo of Magenta, along with a description of it:

magenta2

Dimensions: 8"x10"
Media: Acrylic on Canvas
Year: 2009

Pink stardust shimmers in a bright pool of magenta and white.
The effect is like a cross between candy and stained glass.


I am so glad to have an opportunity to use my artwork to benefit an organization that reaches out and helps people whose lives have been affected by HIV and AIDS.
