This weeks topic was THEATER. The image that immediately came to mind was drama...in its many forms: teen angst, parent child conflict, Drama "Queens" etc. Whether we are the performers or squirming in the audience, our daily lives can become a bit of Theater.
Rather than "giving something up" for Lent, I chose to do an Angel Project. I wanted to create an Angel A Day. It was a challenge. Often the day would slip away and I had to push myself to sit down, open my heart/mind, and see what image would ask to be created. Here is my Lenten "Angel a Day" collection. Most are ACEO size (2.5 x 3.5). Media used was pencil, Ink, Acrylics and Watercolor. Thanks for looking! Imelda
About A4FH Art for FieldHaven is a group of cat-loving eBay artists who have banded together to help support FieldHaven's new shelter facility by listing art during the period of September 6 - 15. The current "cat trailer" must be removed and replaced with a new building. In order to accomplish this task, FieldHaven is trying to raise $150,000.
About FieldHaven (fieldhaven.com)
FieldHaven Feline Rescue was established in 2003 by sisters Jann Flanagan and Joy Smith to provide a safe haven for rescued cats and kittens while awaiting adoption. FieldHaven is located on a private horse ranch in rural Lincoln. The cage-free shelter consists of a converted mobile home and an indoor/outdoor “habitat”. Most of the rescued cats and kittens are located at FieldHaven, but there are a growing number of volunteers who provide foster care for kitties that need isolation, medical treatment, socialization and other care until they are ready for adoption.
Being on a ranch is one of the things that make FieldHaven unique. Cats and kittens get used to a lot of activity including dogs and kids – lots of kids. FieldHaven has a very popular youth volunteer program where parents are encouraged to volunteer with their children. FieldHaven also provides educational programs for schools and youth organizations.
Besides the youth volunteer and education programs, FieldHaven has a senior adoption program called Mature Cats for Mature People where the adoption fee is waived for seniors adopting senior cats.
FieldHaven has a Spay Neuter Assistance Program (SNAP) to assist Lincoln residents with spaying and neutering of stray and feral cats. There are ongoing efforts to educate the public about the option of Trap, Neuter, Release (TNR) to control feral cat colonies.
