Free to a good home...

And the winner is...

What a great honor and delight to present Sisters Linda and Lydia with my artwork!




Our Lady of Guadalupe
A donation of a devotional nature, no kidding, no strings attached.

This portrait belongs in a church, and that's where you come in.
I created this portrait of Our Lady of Guadalupe a couple of years ago.

It is a paper mosaic, created from junk mail & Christmas cards. I tried really hard to get the details right.

This photo is not very good, It is very shiny, has a lot of metallic paper, jewels, etc. The canvas is 24x48", it is in a very heavy,gilded and carved wood frame. It is wired, ready to hang. See more photos below...

This piece of art has been on display at three museums:
Arizona Museum for Youth
Springs Preserve Museum
El Museo Cultural de Santa Fe
and
the Coconino Center for the Arts.

I have no intention of selling it.
Based on the work I sell in galleries, a piece of my work this size would sell for over $4000.00 - but remember, I don't want to sell it.

I am donating it - giving it away...to a Catholic Church in Maricopa County...[no offense, Tucson, Flag...etc.] that really, really wants it.
I'll deliver it, or someone from the church can pick it up.  
Free
No kidding.

So here's how this will work... 
If you want your church to own it, 
  • Comment on the blog - see below, at the very end of this blog, and all the comments you'll see the words post a comment in blue. Click on it!
  • You can post anonymously - I don't need your name. 
  • Name the church you want me donate this to... 
  • The church with the most comments gets it! [Make sure you let your church's admins/clergy know about this... I don't want any trouble!!!] 
  • Please make sure you not only give me the correct name and spelling of the church, but the address, contact name at the church or parish, phone # [at least the first comment, so I make sure there are no duplicates].
  • This is not a competition between parishes, I just want the church that wants it - to have it.
    Comments start now. I will tally the comments up and the church of choice will be announced on Monday, October 25th.

    I promise, this is a totally free, no strings attached offer. I will not solicit ANY kind of business or anything from your comments, your emails, etc... I'm not kidding. This is not for publicity, I just want to give this piece of art to the right place. Why am I doing this? I'm nice!
