auction, school ties, and giving back
I was recently asked to donate a few items for an auction benefitting a scholarship fund at my alma mater, Millsaps College.
I donated three wood transfers from New Orleans. This is actually a new product I've been working on, and I'm getting really close to introducing these into my regular product line. These are 6"x6", printed on a japanese art paper and transferred to wood blocks, then coated with a gesso and varnish to add texture. I really like the unpredictable results these produce, and I'm excited to get things finalized and begin offering them next year. I'll post some photos soon, but for a quick glimpse you can take a look at the photos the auction folks at Millsaps produced. (They're a little dark, but you get the general idea, I think) You can also see these prints at the Attic Gallery in Vicksburg (along with several others)
Up for auction are three of these prints. They are studies from New Orleans -- fleur de lis from different spots around the city. I believe the bid is for all three prints, but if you have any questions you can email me and I'll be happy to check on it for you. All proceeds for this auction go towards an annual scholarship in the name of Don Fortenberry -- longtime Millsaps faculty and incredible mentor to many.
I'd be honored if you took a look around, and considered bidding.
You can see the items HERE.
