Art Chair 'La Musica'
painted for Home Support Services Auction- Auction November 5, 2015
A couple of days ago, this chair was being picked up by Home Support Services of Charlotte County for an art fundraiser.
I painted it with my music-theme 'La Musica' featuring lifely music notes dancing, a treble clef in bright green, and piano keyboard; all on burgundy background with purple and dark green accents. I used outdoor artist grade mural acrylic paints and gave it 3 coats of varnish. I hope it will find a good home and bring some extra funds for 'Home Support Services'.
Home Support Services Inc. is a not-for-profit, governed by a volunteer board of directors.Their qualified Home Support Workers provide assistance in personal care, housekeeping duties, meal preparation and transportation. Their Mission is to provide assistance to people living in Charlotte County allowing them to remain living in their own homes.
Here is what their facebook event write-up says:
'We are participating in the Health and Wellness Fair being held November 05th in St. Andrews at the Community College beginning at 10:30-2:30. The Fair itself is free of charge, however there is also a luncheon being held from 12:30-1:30. The charge is $20.00. If you are interested in reserving a seat please call Kim Garron at 529 5044
AND We are also holding our very first Chair-ity Auction, beginning at 2:00PM 
6 local artists will be presenting their art work on their chairs, to be auctioned off. Proceeds will go to Home Support Services.
We really hope you join us for the fun.'
I hope they can collect extra funds and awareness for their program, it was an honour being asked to participate. Best of luck!
