Art For Charity

If you’d like to acquire one of my paintings, there are a number of them available Pablo Center. There are no prices. You set the price and 100% of the proceeds go to Beacon House, a homeless shelter here in Eau Claire. Please spread the word and help do some good.

Inquire at buyart@pablocenter.org.
