    Winding River ketubah #705 - Reform text shown                     Detail                           

"Winding River Marsh", an original oil painting serves as background for this ketubah's marriage vows. This original work is available as a giclee on canvas. $250.00 - 24"x18" (plus shipping).

Last year the Landings Art Association, of which I am a member, received a violin donated by the Gretsch Company to be decorated and auctioned off to raise money for an approved charity. The Ossabaw Island Foundation was selected to receive the decorated violin for their Annual Roast and Art Auction held on October 22nd.

There was a competition in March to select the winning design for the violin and case.  "Winding River Marsh" was selected as the violin winning entry. After delicately sanding the surface of the violin, the scene was carefully painted in oils on the fragile violin surface. The violin and all other donated articles were on display at the Jack Leigh Gallery in early October.. 

I'm glad to report that the Ossabaw Island foundation raised about $72,000 of which $22,000 came from the art auction.
