YES

"The truth is this, ART in all its forms including writing, poetry, sculpture, painting, music, design, photographing, and more is an accumulation of knowledge. Each painting, novel, poem or photograph is the embodiment of the artist’s lifelong experiences, emotions, education, and intuition. For me, how long did it take, can be easily encapsulated, calculated and condensed into a simple answer… This is what I say, “A lifetime, this painting took a lifetime to paint.”
~Lori"

Opening Reception - "Paint the Ta Tas" Breast Cancer Awareness Group Show

Come see the show that has been gaining a bit of recent infamy in the Manchester, CT area!
Opening reception: Thurs. 17th November, 6pm-9pm
Manchester Memorial Hospital Art Gallery, 71 Haynes St., Manchester CT

-- Town official: No 'Ta-tas' in town hall
MANCHESTER, Conn., Oct. 12 (UPI) -- The general manager of a Connecticut town said he will not allow a "Paint the Ta-Tas" breast cancer awareness project in the town hall lobby. 

Manchester General Manager Scott Shanley said he supports the message of the Manchester Art Association's "Paint the Ta Tas-Celebrating Life" exhibit, which would have aimed to raise breast cancer awareness with painted and decorated life-size plastic torsos in the town hall lobby, but he decided not to allow the exhibit due to the possibility of someone being offended by the artworks being shown in a public place, The Hartford (Conn.) Courant reported Tuesday.

Sponsored by the Manchester Art Association, 'Paint the Ta Tas' is an exhibit to celebrate the lives of those touched by Breast Cancer and the battles they face.

All work may be for sale, and artists have been asked to donate a percentage of the proceeds to Relay for Life of Manchester.

I have set my piece, 'The Few, The Proud, The Forgotten' at $500 and will donate 50% to Relay For Life of Manchester if it is sold. A preview of the exhibit can be found by following this link: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.302318263127797.98553.289012297791727&type=3 

Exhibit runs until 1st December, 2011. Gallery hours are 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Hope to see you there!

Art Patronage Wanted -- UPDATE

Open Studio is rapidly approaching, and I have made some excellent progress toward being ready for it. I'm getting the last of my prints done in the next few days, finishing up paintings, etc. Thanks to your generous contributions, I have been able to check off almost everything on my list of Stuff To Do!

I do, however, have a few more additional expenses -- the biggest of which will probably be the car rental I need for Open Studio Weekend (Nov. 12-13). I will need the transportation from Friday afternoon/evening through Sunday night, not only to get myself there, but to bring all of my art along with me.

Any contributions that you can make for this fund would be really, deeply appreciated! I hope you can all come to the event as well, I would love to see you there! The opening reception for Open Studio is on Thursday, Nov. 3rd from 6-8 pm, and Open Studio Weekend is Nov. 12 & 13, from 11 am to 5 pm. The event is FREE and open to the public. Please check out this link for all of the event details! https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=169962586425313
