Today I am auctioning off this painting in support of the needs in Haiti. This is an opportunity to do something loving for people who are living through an unimaginable crisis today. Here is the painting….
I've been working on this over the weekend. I still want to add a few finishing touches and I would be more than happy to customize the painting with a personal message on the side of the canvas! This painting is 12×16 inches on an extra deep gallery stretched canvas. I will ship it anywhere in the world for free.
Here's how this auction will work: I will accept bids in the comments section until 4 PM tomorrow afternoon. [Note: please do not bid if you cannot donate that amount to this important cause this week] I will keep the high bid updated from time to time here on the post, but please check the comments section for an up-to-the-minute high bid. When the auction ends I will announce the winner and will ship this painting (free shipping) as soon as we receive confirmation that the donation has been made (you can donate here or at the site of your choice supporting Haiti relief) . This is an important cause and I am honored that A Beautiful Mess can be involved.
Winning Bid: $300 Congrats, Ally!! Thank you for supporting this important cause!
