beauty for good.

i know the events of this past week have rocked us all. watching the earthquake & tsunami in Japan from the safety and comfort of my home really struck my heart. As a mom I feel it is imperative to give back, to show by example that every little bit helps. fellow photographer, and friend, Erika Ray asked if i would like to join her and a few other artists in a print sale. i was honored. proceeds from the sale will be donated to the ICRC, International Commitee of the Red Cross to aid tsunami relief. This is a cause very near to my heart. I lived through a natural disaster March 13, 1993 while living on the coast of FL. having no appliances to keep food in or to prepare food on after the storms and flood surge, the American Red Cross fed myself (and my unborn baby taylor. i was 7 months pregnant) and thousands of others every day, twice a day, for over a month from a small mobile van. I loved that van and those volunteers. The Red Cross helped me personally and helps others in need all over the world each and every day.

please join us.
