JAMM art auction tonight
Posted on November 29, 2012 1 Comment
I got a bit of an anxiety spell last night when I remembered tonight’s JAMM art auction. Being the control freak that I am, I’m a little out of my comfort zone when it comes to putting my work under the gavel. I couldn’t go to the preview last night and had no idea how […]

Laura sent me these pictures today and I loved them too much not to include them in my blog. The painting certainly looked more impressive at night! Thank you, Laura, for the pictures. I’m going to try to get some more from you!

I didn’t attend the auction last night so asked PH7 photographer Khaled Al-Saleh to send me some photos. It was fun going through them and seeing who was there from the comfort of my own room!

Tonight is Jamm’s February 17 charity auction viewing. Whenever there is a major event, and I remember, I like to prepare some name cards to distribute. Today I made a very generous and optimistic ten because I am becoming extremely more picky these days about who I give my number out to.

“The Girl & Her Giant Schnauzer Iber is a painting I did especially for this auction. I was asked to participate at a time when I was seriously contemplating adopting a cat, so I had animals on my mind. Now, after weeks of both failed and successful photo sessions involving a humongous dog, a few […]

I started a painting today. I’m painting it specially for an auction which is to take place mid-February at the Dar Al-Funoon Gallery in Sharq. More about this in future posts. Because the auction will benefit a certain animal shelter, I felt that it was befitting to paint a portrait of two of my favorite […]
