Running for Travis Fundraiser in Vancouver B.C.

Tonight in Vancouver British Columbia is an event happening right now called Running for Travis Fundraiser at the Lotus Sound Lounge.... I was unable to make the trip down for the event :( But I hear there was lots of art donations made! OVER 40 peices!!! Two of which were donated by myself :) I was really happy painting these two paintings. Not just because it was going to a good cause, to help a young man and his family,  but the paintings made me feel hopeful and like anything is achievable :)
Buddha's Lotus (Left) is a relaxing and wishful painting. Also inspired by the BOB song "Airplanes" I wanted the background to be a sky full of shooting stars and we all can make a wish.
When Fish Swim in Trees (Right) made me realized that anything is possible when fish swim in trees.  I remember telling friends this idea and they gave a an odd look but I proved them! haha

All the Best to Travis and his family and to Emily who put the fundraiser all together! And to my new friend Bonnie! Thank you :)
