Go Gold Sugar Skull


This month is Childhood Cancer awareness month and in honor of that I was asked by Jo Khalaf to participate with many other artists all over the world in creating an art piece to share and promote awareness for this cause.  She created an event page called Go Gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month on facebook where you can join thousands of artists all over the world in this more than worthy cause.

 I decided to do this for a few reasons...

1. I have children and if anything like this were to happen to them I would do anything in my power to fight for them. There is no love stronger than a Mother's love.

2. My work revolves around children so, this just felt like the perfect way for me to use my talents to give back. Children are our hope and future. Nothing breaks my heart more like seeing a sick or hurt child. If we can raise money to help find a cure to protect our children then, I will do whatever I can.

 4. It takes nothing for me to paint an art piece and post it on Social Media. That is what I do and how I promote my own work so, if I can take a minute and use that power to promote something bigger than me then, of course I'm going to do it.

 As an artist I hope you will join too and paint or create a simple or complex Gold look and use the Hash tag #GoGold and #ChildhoodCancerAwareness. Then share these links:
