Another Step Forward . . .

My charitable foundation project has taken another step forward. I have started accepting donations in order to fund the next step in the process.

I'm raising funds to purchase software upgrades in order to build the foundation's new website, as well as to purchase web-hosting space and services. Please make a micro-donation of at least $5, $10, or $25. Since the IRS has not yet granted me tax-exempt status these donations will not be tax-deductible.

You can read about the foundation's purpose here, here and here.

Please donate using the "Chip In" button below or the donation button on my website. Thank you.

It's About Giving . . .

If you remember my earlier post “Hope & Light” you’ll recall my mentioning a charitable foundation, whose purpose will be to help families who have children with cancer. The time has come to get started.

I am currently in the beginning stages of getting the organization set up. Then I’ll establish an internet presence and begin. This foundation will be closely associated with the Choate Gallery, and sales from my prints will provide some of the funding. Once things get up and running I plan on auctioning off an occaisional canvas or two for the charity.

For now please check out these two websites:

http://www.networkforgood.org/ and http://www.sixdegrees.org/

They’re both great.

I’m also in the middle of creating a line of high-end licensed products using my paintings, such as calendars, bookmarks, book plates, etc. More on that soon.
