Donation Policy
There are thousands of worthy charitable causes/organizations in this world. I am
approached by several every week, each seeking a painting that will be auctioned to
raise money. I wish I could give away artwork to everyone in need, but I cannot afford
to do so. Therefore, to those who would like for me to donate a painting to their fund
raising auction, here are your options:
Option 1: I will donate a small "color study" painting, free and clear. This artwork is
usually no larger than 9" x 14" and has a retail value of no more than $100. No
minimum starting-bid price is required.
Option 2: I will donate a large painting. When the artwork is auctioned, the charity will
keep 60% of the proceeds. I will receive the remaining 40% of the proceeds. The retail
value is approximately $500 - $5000, depending on the size of the painting I donate. I
will set a minimum starting-bid price.
Also, I am developing a new Fundraising Initiative for schools and nonprofit
organizations. In short, I would create a small commemorative painting (most likely an
angel) specifically for the organization that could be reproduced and sold throughout
the year via Internet and stores. The organization's information would be on the back of
the angel, and the organization would have the option to buy the original painting.
Moreover, I have about 1600 people on my active email list, and in conjunction with the
organization's email list, we would send out a once a quarter offering the artwork on
behalf of raising funds for the organization. Moreover, I would handle the email
marketing campaign as well as the production and filling the orders. The organization
would then receive 40% of the net profits. Furthermore, I would sell the commemorative
angel in stores throughout the state. At the end of the year, that painting would be
"retired" making it a collector's item. A new commemorative painting would be created
for the next year and the fundraising efforts would continue.
