Pastels

Pastels are the most archival form of pigments. Usually created on paper, they need to be matted and framed if they are displayed where they might be damaged... but personally I love to see them without the glass that so often obscures their unique texture and color...

After years of bloodshed in Burundi Africa, many women and children need help to survive. Central African Vision (CAV) assists women to create sustainable businesses that will provide the means for thier families' futures.
I donated some work for their cause and this beautiful Pastel portrait of a woman and child is available for a donation of $1200 or more -
100% will be given to CAV. We can make a difference.

Central African Vision (CAV) is a non profit organization that is fundraising to help the war torn areas of Burundi. Administrative positions are fully volunteer so ALL donations bankroll the women of Burundi to start their own businesses. As their businesses prosper, these women then help fund other women build more businesses.
