This year’s 5th Annual Concealed Revealed Art Auction brought in a record amount of funds raised for the YWCA Battered Women Task Force, over $6,000!
The Greenwave Electric, Inc. guys showed up in full force to support the charity, and set off quite a bidding war. They ended up as highest bidders on my painting, Sun Valley. I think that piece will be the perfect fit for their office – they are all about being environmentally friendly with their electrical services business.

Gee whiz, I don’t think a person could possibly ask for a more beautiful day than Sunday at Lawrence Art in the Park! The sun was warm and bright, and people were out in the masses taking in the rays and enjoying the artwork.

I’m not sure what the other artists experienced, but I thought the turnout was great! My booth was hopping, with people streaming in and out all day. I know, this photo doesn’t exactly show the crowd . . . Brandon said it was one of the few times he was able to snap a shot without lots of  people in the way, passing by on the sidewalk in front of my booth.

In the end, I sold two pieces and got a couple of contacts for potential commission work lined up. It turned out to be a pretty successful Sunday!

Don’t miss this year’s Concealed Revealed Art Auction this Saturday, April 26, 6:30 pm at Warehouse 414!

This year’s auction benefiting the YWCA Battered Women Task Force features original artwork created by over 50 local artists, including some of the women and children staying at the task force shelter.

Along with my piece, Sun Valley, you will have the opportunity to place bids on artwork of all mediums – paintings, photography, ceramics, jewelry. Click here for a sneak peak of what’s in store!

Even if you’re not in the market for a new piece of artwork, come out to enjoy the comradere and the atmosphere. There will be complimentary beer, wine, finger foods and desserts, compliments of Daddy Cakes, Henry T’s Bar & Grill, New City Cafe and Tara’s Catering.

Tickets are available in advance for $15 or at the door for $25.
