Hi all. Today a lady contacted me via my website requesting a donation of a picture for an auction she is holding to raise money for her son - through the correct channels "justgiving".
I was wondering - has anyone done this? I've been advised by a local artist not to give an original (and I wont, it will be a print) - just wondered what people's experiences have been.
At present I feel quite chuffed to be asked and as business people will be there feel it's an opportunty to get new people seeing my work - she has offered to have my business cards at the event too.
Thoughts anyone? *-)
