Ten artists collaborate to raise money for homeless veterans.

Well our traveling painting started on its journey today.  Ten artists around the USA will be contributing.  Proceeds of the sale will go to Veteran's Leadership Council Cares a 501 C 3 dedicated to helping our veterans get back on their feet.

Contributing artists:
Lori Gilroy , Maria De Leon, Charlotte Phillips, Joji Todd, Cathy Gillette, Elaina Allen-Velando, Lisa Scherer, Leslie Rubio, JoanRudloff, and ME!
 
I am so happy to be doing this with my artist friends from all over.  Can't wait to see what we all bring to the panel!

    And I'm so happy that you came up with this wonderful idea! We will have to continue this with a new travelling project (once a month?) and pick different charities that will benefit from it. There are so many artists that want to contribute and so many charities to pick from! I'm going to email you as I have an idea!

    Yes Leslie! There are so many artists that like the idea and so many charities...that's for sure! Since one painting does well with not too many hands...I would definitely encourage other artists to do their own groups. I would be happy to share the travels on my blog here. It's great synergy because it's good for the artists and it is good for society...Win Win!

    I would also be happy to help any artist that wants to do their own traveling painting.
