Over the next few months I'll be donating half of any money made from the sale of prints through my online stores, marcuskwame.com and marcuskwame.etsy.com towards relief efforts for the people of Haiti. Upon the sale of a print the donation will be made to American Red Cross or the Haiti disaster relief charity of your choice.

If you're not interested in prints, cool, but please do your part and donate directly. I suggest one of the charities on this list put out by the American Institute of Philanthropy. These are the top rated aid organizations. As with any charity it is important to research how the money will be used.

The impact of the earthquake was worsened by the poor infrastructure and rampant poverty created by years of injustice and neglect perpetuated by many world governments. The world should not have turned it's back on Haiti before and we most certainly can not afford to now.

Yesterday was the unveiling of of seven large paintings which now adorn the boarded up facade of Proctor's Theater in Troy. One of the seven pieces was my Lady Day painting. Below are photos of the other artists' beautiful work. I really enjoyed being a part of this project. Thanks to Debra Lockrow for making it happen with RPI. You can read more in this Troy Record Article. You can also see more photos of all the art at my blog.

New Art & New Card: Imani is a new mixed media piece that I've just added to my gallery. It is also the design for the latest card I've added to my Greeting Card store.

Peace!

CARDS by KWAME: I have a bunch of new cards for sale in my store, and more are on the way. All of my cards feature my art and designs and are blank inside so that you can write your own personalized message for any occasion. They are about 4.5" x 7" and come with envelopes. They also look nice in a frame. Get yours today!

Serenity is never difficult to find when your eyes are open. It can be found in the sky or in your daughter's eyes. Tonight I've found it in ink, to be shared with the night, and spoken it to the stars, now blackened with the light.

Here's a piece I did for the autumn, self-portrait themed issue of Poets and Artists, a quarterly literary and visual arts magazine. I'm working on some other new stuff. Stay tuned.

Peace!
