"one world one heart" giveaway

i am once again delighted to participate in the "One world one heart" giveaway. this has been a hard year for a lot of people. there have been jobs lost and small fortunes wiped out. many of us are struggling with despair and anxiety for the future. it is for this reason ,that my giveaway this year is an 8" x 10" print of my painting "phoenix". this print depicts the mythological phoenix rising from its own ashes;an eternal symbol of hope. If you are interested in winning this print, please leave a comment here.....along with a way to contact you should you be the winner.the drawing will be held at 9pm (est) on february 15, 2010. thanks for stopping by.

new paintings
