Craig painted this very special painting of Charlene. The plan was to auction it off, just like we do with one of his paintings ever year, but once he finished it, I knew I couldn't let it go. He just captured her so perfectly.
Every year it's hard parting with his painting, but this year, it was just impossible to do so.
SO, instead of auctioning off THIS painting, we're keeping it, but I'm having prints made, so ANYONE can purchase a 5"x 7"copy. The proceeds will go to our FUNdraiser. They're being printed now, and should be here by tomorrow. I haven't set the price yet -- I need to figure out some shipping stuff and crunch some numbers -- but I promise they will be easy on your wallet.
Craig's working on another painting, so don't worry, we'll have one to auction off in the next couple of days.
Thank you for this beauty, Craig. You're the best.
The best of both worlds! I saw requests for a print of this painting in the comments so you are making readers happy, too :)
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be able to part with the painting, either!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous--Bean and her painting. I wouldn't be able to let it go either, but the prints are the perfect solution. :o)
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to be able to afford a Craig original print! So precious!
ReplyDeleteYay!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, yay! I always covet those paintings, and can't wait to order the prints! My own little bean!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful. Your husband is a very talented artist (but you already knew that). :-)
ReplyDeleteHave to say that I'd keep it too! Can not wait for the prints.
