Description Day 343 of my 366 daily art project! A lot more are on the way! Please read all about my project and charity below and in my journal.

I don't know why, but I think he's cute.

>>Created with charcoal and chalk on 2.5x3.5 ACEO gray 500 series Strathmore charcoal paper. About 1.5 hours.

-----------------

♥ For every day of 2012, I will be drawing one ACEO sketch card. Every single one will be for sale - ALL proceeds to be donated to charity at the end of 2012.

My charity of choice is a local foundation called Alternatives to Violence, who is currently raising money to build a safehouse. This safehouse will provide a secure shelter to men, women and children who have recently escaped physical and sexual abuse.

With the safehouse, 312 individuals every year will receive crisis intervention, counseling, safety planning, advocacy and shelter.

Together, through art, we can help make a difference.

If you love this piece and the safehouse project, you can see the card to purchase at Etsy for $8 + shipping:[link]

just looked through all of your drawings for the 366 drawing project, and wow, as you go back in time, its like a different artist!
Your work has improved SO MUCH, the newest ones are absolutely fantastic, but the ones near the beginning I would actually call .. nice, but pretty amateur XD
The latest 50 or so are truly stunning, your art reached so many different levels while doing this wonderful charitable act

Wow, thank you so much! It's so neat to look at the whole year and be able to agree with what you said! I've grown so much more that I thought possible and I couldn't be happier to be doing it for such a wonderful charity foundation! I'm hoping to end the year on a high note and really challenge myself with my last week and half of drawings!
