$50.00 USD Plus Shipping and Handling

A very personal work, no chance of duplicating this one, as the composition is made of real objects worn and used by Mother (or Grandma, February 2007 Artist of the Month, as we have been referring to her on the website, for purposes of clarity.)

The M.A.D. House Artists is proud to announce the launch of a project under the auspices of usaprojects.org! The fundraiser will be open until June 30, 2013, and we need to raise only $3,000.00 to be able to purchase supplies and realise this magnificent work of art.

Candace will be mounting this large scale mosaic mural

on the unfinished wall that faces our handicap walk/stairs.

With YOUR help, this will become a reality.

THANK YOU!
