Art Auction for Okey's Promise: Art for a Cause


Our dear anipal, Brewski Butt, let Bztat, aka Vicki, come to Blogpaws 2011 to make a presentation about the next phase for Okey's Promise. In her kickstarter page, Vicki explains: "My hope is that this artwork will start a dialog about the combined issues of animal abuse, child abuse and domestic violence." A key issue is that this project will only be funded if at least $6,000 is pledged by Monday Sep 26, 4:02pm EDT. as of 9-6-11, $1285 have been pledged.

As you may recall, the link between domestic and animal abuse is very dear to Mom's heart. She had me contact our group of artistic anipals and we are putting together an auction of artwork. Our list so far is: jewelry by Duck'sTypist, drawings by CheshireK, a print from Bztat, a Pasikas scarf, and one of Mom's beaded wallhangings. Details are still being worked out as to when, where, how.

I hope to have pictures for you all. I promise that Parker will help mom for sure. I will say that I have left fur on it already - it is a Christmas Laurel Burch wallhanging that she plans to hand bead. Mom, you had really better glam this up, because i am falling asleep just looking at it!

Love to all,
Maggie

Anipal Photo Hunt #8 - I'm with the Band


This week we're featuring Mr. Rudy for the Anipal Photo Hunt #8 - "I'm with the Band". This was his 2009 Halloween costume designed by @GeorgetheDuck. Rudy is in his full wailing glory on the alto sax. And, here is another factoid: Parker is named for Charlie Yardbird Parker, a famous alto saxman from the BeBop era. Maybe Mom just has a thing for red cats and saxes.
