Donating MY Artwork

The images of the devastation caused by Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines are overwhelming and they leave me wanting to do something to help.

I have always told my son, "No matter how little you might have, you will always have enough to give to someone in need."
 
So, here's what I'm doing...
my painting 'Walk to the Horizon' is being auctioned off, and all proceeds will go the Red Cross Philippines Typhoon Response.
'Walk to the Horizon' is oil on an 8" x 10" canvas...
and is already in a 14" x 16" frame, wired for hanging.
('Walk to the Horizon' was recently in a Community Arts Center show in Wallingford, PA, priced at $325.00)
 
Here's how it will work...
bidding starts today and will end at midnight, Tuesday, November 19, 2013.
I will ship the painting to the winning bidder once payment is received.
I will pay for shipping so that the entire bid can go to the relief effort.
 
The opening bid is $95.00 and the bidding increment must be at least $5.00.
Bids can be made here in the comments, on my personal Facebook page, on my Cynthia Murray Design Facebook page or through email at cjmurraydesign@aol.com
I will post the top bid at the end of each day at my various sites just in case anyone might want to know where the bidding is. 
With permission, I will announce the winning bidder once payment is received.
 
In the big picture, I know this is a small effort, but all the small efforts can add up to something that makes a difference.
 
Want some original artwork?
Bid away and let's make a difference together!
