Waiting...

This 20" x 16" painting is being used on the poster and catalog for this year's Artists for Animals silent auction fundraiser. And, yes, you can bid on the actual painting when the advance viewing for the fundraiser opens October 22 at Autumn Brook Gallery.
The bidding for both the silent auction and a live auction - paintings ,yes, but also sculpture and other fine art - is on Sunday, October 28th. It all starts at 5:oo pm with the live auction at 7:oo pm. There will be refreshments so it all makes for a good evening raising funds to pay veterinarian and medical expenses for animals in crisis. This event is organized by the Kensington Foundation. You can read about how they got their name on their website.
Autumn Brook Gallery is located at 1545 W. 4th Avenue in Vancouver.
I was pleased to have my painting selected for the poster and catalog and to be part of this worthwhile endeavour. The painting is called "Waiting" - and whether the cat is going in or coming out is up to the purchaser to decided. Maybe, in the meantime, the cat is waiting for attention to this good cause!
