1 Year Ago
Hi all. I think some of you already know that I was stricken with breast cancer about a year ago. That event, coupled with getting laid off from my job due to my division at work getting shut down, months of searching for a new job, having to stay isolated for months post-cancer treatment due to fear of COVID (chemotherapy destroys your immune system), which caused me to have to resign from my NEW job, and other issues, have made life very difficult for me.
After discussing these things with our friend Abbie, I have decided to set up a GoFundMe. Another artist here set one up several years ago, to which I donated. I know that times have been tough for all of us of late, but I felt I must reach out for help.
And I'm offering something in return. If I reach my GoFundMe goal, the person who is able to donate the most will be given the original pastel painting of "Epitaph for a Captive Cheetah", which I'll post below. The original painting does not have the black box or text on it. It is the painting itself. It is matted, but not yet framed; I will frame it for the person who wins it.
Here is the link to my GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/50b4be08 Please read my story there. It describes in more detail why I'm requesting help.
Below is the print version of the painting I'm offering:
If you folks can spread the word on your Facebook, Instagram, etc. accounts, I'd be very grateful. Thank you for any help you can give.
