To get right to the auction and bidding, you can go directly here. I would hope, however, that you might take a moment first to learn something about the fate of almost 300 Nigerian school girls who were abducted on their way to school. There are several sites with information, but I have found this one to be most reliable and current:

I would also like to thank each of the artists who has donated artwork to the auction. They are all truly talented men and women, and their generosity is amazing. We have all come together to focus attention on the importance of education of our world's children, especially the education of young women in countries where it is considered "unnecessary." You can visit the blogs of each of the artists and get more details about their projects available at the auction.

Hi Kay, I see the auction was a great success and you did good. Happy dancing and big hugs for you
ReplyDeleteIn late for that too sorry, although I've seen it already on Renee's blog a bit before... So happy to see your name among the list, and with this so lovely make from you for ever!!! Well done!! The buyer will look at it with delight and appreciate it much, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteI would have been very happy to participate also to this generous action, but so few time for that in this moment yet... And I already give some of my works sometimes for a similar French action via a blog called 'Give Your Scrap'...Have a great week-end Kay. Mwah!
Love this one. Red and white so dramatic. Love that wall... so clever to stand her on a crayon. Fabulous. I love to see how much fun you are having.
