Artwork Details

DescriptionFor the past three years, Irene Gallo and Dan Dos Santos have solicited an ever-changing group of fantastic artists to each produce a 5"x7" painting (or, in one instance, a sculpture) for the Society of Illustrators student scholarship fund. I was honored to be asked to add a piece this year! The resulting works are placed on exhibition for a short period of time and then listed on eBay to be bid upon. All of the proceeds earned from the auction provide additional funding for the Society of Illustrators' student scholarship fund.The third annual MicroVisions auction is now open. Dan Dos Santos and I asked ten artists to create a 5x7 painting of their choosing. These minis are on exhibit at the Society of illustrators and, as of now, on auction on eBay. All proceeds go to the Society's student scholarship fund. The SI Scholarships are among the industry's toughest awards. A little over 100 students are chosen to be in the exhibit from nearly 6,000 entries -- about half of them are given cash awards. Not only do these awards help subsidize students financially but they also go a long way to boost the confidence of young artists (and their nervous parents) by proving that their voice stands out amongst thousands of others. It's never long before you start seeing the winners out in the world and on their way to becoming the field's biggest names -- John Jude Palencar, James Jean, Tomer Hanuka and hundreds of others since the Scholarship's inception in 1981.

HI
For years I thought it would be cool to go walking with a Tiger.
Now it should be hard to choose.
We can not put the girl on a leash.
