When life gives you lemons, you Feed the Need

New Territory
We find ourselves in difficult times and artists, also reinventing their selling options on almost a daily basis, are banding together to help food and bev workers in Charleston.

I'm so happy to be involved in this effort to help both food and bev folks but also our amazing local farmers and purveyors who supply the closed eateries and bars. They are also scrambling. 

Online art auction starts tomorrow
Feed the Need's Pay It Forward efforts will put grocery bags filled with fresh foods from local farmers and purveyors into the hands of out-of-work F&B folks. An online art auction with artwork from over 100 Charleston artists goes live on Sunday, April 26 at 5pm ... check it out at www.32auctions.com/ArtistsforFeedtheNeed

I've donated two food and farm related paintings to the effort. They are both 14 x 14", oil on cradled birch, in a floating black frame. 
The top one is called Grinding Corn at the Farmer's Market and the lower image is Hummus on a Ritz is Fine Dining. Our local market is amazing and this machine is a magnet for the curious. It sounds like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang as it grinds corn into meal. And even a simple plate of hummus and crackers can be plated and served with love.
