San Francisco Art Benefit for Haiti, March 12, 2010

A friend of mine, local photographer Paul Ferraris, has put together a benefit silent art auction, "San Francisco Community Art Show for Haiti". Paul asked if I'd like to donate artwork for the benefit coming up on March 12, 2010. My response was quick, "Absolutely!". All the proceeds from the show will go to Architecture for Humanity and their work in Haiti. Paul helped me select the photo above as the one to donate for the benefit.

This will be a great show and Paul has put together a seriously talented group of folks; Adam Warmington, Aleks Petrovich, Alexander Schaffer Czech, Barry McGee, Chris Burkard, Elizabeth Pepin, Peter McBride, Rob Brodman and that is only a few of the artists donating their work.

Come on down to the show, bid on some great artwork and do your part to support the rebuilding effort in Haiti. You can view and pre-bid on some of the work HERE.

WARNING: I'VE INCLUDED SOME IMAGES FROM HAITI THAT ILLUSTRATE THE DEVASTATION AND LOSS OF LIFE. LOOKING AT THESE I'M HAUNTED BY THE FACT THAT WE TOO LIVE IN A SEISMICALLY ACTIVE AREA.
