The St Michaels Art League has an on-going fundraiser. All our members are asked to paint a card which is then sold for $5.00 - all monies go to the scholarship fund. Each spring the senior art students at St Michaels and Easton High Schools get their portfolios together and they are judged. At the senior awards ceremonies in late May, the art league hands out checks to these students. In the past few years we have been able to give away several thousand dollars to help these kids with their college expenses.
When we began this project, we only painted Christmas cards - we now have cards for any occasion...all hand painted pieces of art. The painting that I present today is a card that I produced a few years ago. As a matter of fact, someone saw it, bought it and asked for six more! Apparently she had a lot of 'dog-lover' friends and wanted to send it to them all.
So, here's my Christmas card to you all. (and to all your dogs...)
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
