Odd Man Inn 6th Annual Online Art Show & Sale

This week, until April 29th, you can purchase $5 chances here to win this original oil painting of Melvin, the tripod and earless pig from Odd Man Inn Animal Refuge in Janesville, TN. The painting is framed and ready to hang – canvas size is 24 x 18. Making this art package even better, Kat von Cupcake wrote a poem to accompany my painting. You can also view the many other wonderful art packages and purchase chances to win any of those items, all to benefit the sanctuary. Melvin lost his ears and his leg due to an altercation with a dog before he was taken in and rehabilitated by Odd Man Inn. His recovery is truly amazing and a testament to this strong boy’s will to survive.

All sales proceeds from my open studio will be donated to Sanctuary One, a care farm in the Applegate Valley. Maps are now available at local galleries and will also be available online before the event.
