Really, really nice job on the cutting and your friend did a great job on the painting. Also nice work on the Frame, if I assume you made it!

Sending pryers for your sister and family.

I'm curious, if you don't mind.  What kind of fund rasing event is the the Auction going to be part of.  Is it  a live Auction or a silent Auction?  Will this be the only item or is there going to be many others?

It was a live auction.  It was a great turn out.  Thank you for the prayers for my sister.  She has a big fight a head of her.

Amazing job!!! Mike Williams patterns are not for the faint of heart, but you killed it.

One comment concerning auctions. I donate a few dozen pieces each year to various organizations. Silent auctions and outright auctions will only bring so much money although at times folks will get into a sort of frenzy and outbid one another. We have decided to use the "pool board" idea when donating items. People pick a square and it only costs them a dollar or two, or even more per square. For example, we donated a MW piece titled At Rest, a deer laying in the forest. The volunteer fire department needed some items and they set up a board of 100 squares numbers 1 thru 100. for 5 dollars per square and once the board sold out, they picked a number out of a hat to select the winner. The board sold out in an hour at a fund-raising breakfast and so they got 500 dollars for the portrait. The FD told me that since it worked so well that if I donate another piece next year, they will make the board 15 by 15.

Just an idea to help raise more money, but regardless of what you do, I sincerely hope it helps to raise much needed funding to assist you sister. God Bless. Good on you Sir.
