Happy Valentine’s Day <3

I am so incredibly pleased and honored to announce that the January Art Auction to Benefit The United Way of Western Connecticut’s Sandy Hook School Support Fund was a success!

Completed eBay Auction »

Watch Video About the Auction & my new YouTube Art & Inspirational Interview Series:

After 7 days of bidding, the winning bid was placed by a generous contributor from New York, and raised $57 to benefit the Support Fund, which provides support services to the families & communities of the victims of the Sandy Hook/Newtown tragedy. The full amount was sent directly through the eBay Giving Works program to the United Way of Western Connecticut, an organization at the forefront of humanitarian change.

Congratulations to our high bidder and thank you so much for helping families in need! <3

I can’t wait to get the winning bidder’s photo and start drawing! Stay tuned for my next Charity Art Auction next week, and thank you to all who bid and/or spread the word, for caring about those who most need our support.

Love,

Adesina

When the voice and the vision on the inside become more profound, clear and louder than the opinions on the outside, you’ve mastered your life.

So true.

When we demand that we always paint or write or draw well, we are putting our critic in charge of our creative process.
