great art for a greater cause























if you're in the ottawa area on thursday, january 28th, please find time to check out the HERE FOR THERE / ARTISTS FOR HAITI event at la petite mort gallery.

over 50 artists (including myself) have donated works, with 100% of sales going to World Vision Canada - which means the amount donated will be matched by the Canadian government.

i can attest to the awesomeness of shows at la petite mort gallery, and this one will be no exception! it's a wonderful opportunity to pick up a great piece of artwork and give to a great cause at the same time.

an entry fee of $5 will be donated to World Vision, and donation boxes will be set up so you can give whatever you can, even if you don't take home an original artwork.

participating artists include:
Tamara Jensen (that's me!), Tony Fouhse, Dave Cooper, Darren Holmes, Michael Zavacky, Jim Kohan, Lori Langille, Martin Lipman, Kenji Toyooka, Andy Borehol, Daniel Martelock, Jonathan Hobin, Meaghan Haughian, Marc Audet, Bojana Dimitrovski, Remie Geoffroi, Anita Utas, Elliott Fockyer, Alex Leblanc, Alain Brunet, Andrea Warren, Terry SanCartier, Jennifer Bisson, Bérangère Audet, Shabnam Dastoornejad, Jinny Slyfield, Jennifer Bisson, Bill Murray, Valerie Roos,
Jan Soetermans, Sarah Walker, Meghan Myres, Patricia Kirby, Heidi Conrod, Michael Sasso, Kelsey Magill, Judith Linthorst, Christine Mockett, Sara Komarnicki, Dreya Rosendaal, Hans Blokpoel, Ivan Petrov, Philip Kesner, Dano Campbell, Marc Guadet, Ted Willis . . . and counting!

a huge thanks to Michael "Zeke" Zavacky for organizing this show, and to Guy Berube for donating the use of the gallery for the night!
