What Happened?!
August 19, 2006 - Arts for ACT Live Auction -
I donated a full size version of "My Swan" for
another good cause that resulted
in a donation of $1500 to help abused women and children of
Southwest Florida! Celebrity host was Lauren Hutton. The auction
was attended by over 500
people and was held at Harborside Convention Center in downtown
Fort Myers. The auction
was accompanied by two Preview Shows in the month prior. The first
was at the Rauschenberg
Gallery at Edison College and the second at Wachovia Bank in
downtown Fort Myers.
ADDED SPECIAL NOTE!
Thanks to worldly acclamimed pop artist ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG
for his purchase of "My Swan" at the live auction!
A compliment it is when a peer of his
accomplishment level acknowledges effort.
May he rest in Peace.

I proudly donated two different sizes of
"this is how seagulls do it..."
