1. Unique art auction/gala invitations? I’m doing a project for school that will be promoting...

The promotion includes a poster, and an invitation. What I have so far: a "defaced" print of the Mona Lisa (or some other famous painting) with paw prints and doggie/kittie ears painted over it. I haven’t a clue for the invitation yet, but I was planning on including an auction sign as part of the mailer. Any ideas? Know of any good websites that I could check out for inspiration?

Do a search under images, and search Animal posters, or Animal paintings. this may inspire you. good luck.

2. Do you have any ideas as to where I could hold the auction or raffle? I was thinking somewhere like a PTA event at the elementary school or something like that.

Thanks!

It’s a GREAT idea. I wouldn’t raffle them off though. I’d do the auction. People will definitely buy art from sick kids.

Oh! Obviously I’d like great results, but they need to be cost effective too. I’d like to be able to have a variety of colors without having to spend a lot of money. The Tsukineko inks were already available to me.

I’d use a home-made stampad and either Jacquard Air Brush Ink or Jacquard Lumiere or Neopaque fabric paint, slightly thinned.

I’ve done fingerprints with the neopaques and lumiere by brushing it out thinly on a foam meat tray, then
putting my finger in it, then transferring to stretched cloth.

Contemporary conceptual artist Chitra Ramanathan was chosen to create this wall mural painting as artist in residence. The project involved creating a large-scale wall mural for the front lobby of Creek Elementary School, Marion County Indianapolis, Indiana U.S.A, to represent the international focus of the school. Chitra started by painting the base, while each student was allotted a portion to paint or stick collage material to represent icons from different parts of the world. All 505 students from Kindergarten to grade 5 was given a chance to know and work with the artist. After all students had contributed, Chitra worked to unify the painting in her unique textural abstract style that is typical of her extensive, known body of work, without altering the students’ contribution. To quote the art teacher in charge of related administration, “Students had so much fun working on the mural!” The final piece measures 13.8 feet wide and 4 feet high and was created between March and April 2008. This site-specific public art commission made possible by a grant to the school by the Washington Township School Foundation, Indiana. It was completed April 5, 2008.

Says a recent collector of Chitra’s painting who is an art connoisseur and a former staffer of the Indianapolis Museum of Art, “I first met Chitra when I took her classes at the Indianapolis Art Center. I wanted a painting by Chitra because I like the feeling her abstract work evokes. I like the way her paintings make me feel and think; and I like how she communicates so much with a subtle use of color or a tiny brush stroke…..There is so much in our world today that can be considered “negative”, that I like art around me that offers hope and that reaches for joy. For me, her paintings do that”-Alice Irvan, President, AIRvan Consulting, LLC, Indianapolis U.S.A.

Trivia

Two of her large-scale paintings are permanently displayed and owned by the College of Medicine at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA since 1995.

Her first solo exhibition in the U.S was hosted by the ARC Gallery and Educational Foundation at Chicago in 1994. This major exhibition featured her paintings as well as sculptures and prints. The Chicago exhibition was followed by shows at different art galleries on Broadway, New York from 1995-1998.

She coined the phrase “formless forms” to describe her visual depiction of happiness, an emotion of the mind, in her extensive body of colorful paintings with myriad textures. Calls her images of happiness “formless forms”, while portraying that emotion of the mind as a visual entity.

She was awarded the Liquitex “Excellence in Art” Product Grants for two consecutive years (1994 and 1995) from Binney and Smith Inc., makers of Crayola crayons.

Has spent time painting and drawing entire days in Paris, France that inspired her current work. The major influence for her current body of work stemmed from keenly observing the gardens from inside the Claude Monet House during visits to Giverny. Her favorite painting, The Waterlily Pond, 1897.

The Indianapolis Artsgarden was the venue of the most recent solo exhibition of her signature paintings.

To date, most of her signature style paintings have got sold to collectors in the state of California.

Has taught courses and workshops in Acrylic painting and Mixed media painting at the Indianapolis Art Center since 2004.

Her biography is listed in the national directory Who’s Who in America 2008.

Her 1998 and 2000 originals titled “A Momentary Glance”, and “Coruscation” respectively, were the originals works upon which two large-scale paintings on canvas signed by the artist were created for MGM Mirage for the Bellagio, Las Vegas in 2004. “Coruscation”, a mixed-media painting on canvas measuring 18 inches X 24 inches, is owned by an Indianapolis based collector who acquired it in 2006. Artprice Auction House, France hosts her images.

Has created drawings and paintings throughout her childhood and adolescent years. Began drawing and painting from the age of four. When Chitra Ramanathan was a child, she practically drew everything that she “could see out of her window”. She drew the faces of random people as well as that of her parents’ friends. When she was just twelve years old, her watercolor painting was showcased in recognition of her talent at the Birla Academy of Art and Culture, Kolkata, India, in addition to being presented a silver trophy through the Philips India Ltd. “Parichay” Child Art Competition at an award function at the venue.

She was awarded a prize in the form of a camera at the age of ten through a national child art competition by Hindustan Unilever Ltd., India.

Has received several awards from art competitions throughout her growing years. Created portraits and landscapes throughout her childhood.

In her commission for Fiat 500, the cars take Emin’s work quite literally out of the gallery and onto the street. As such, the cars have become mobile canvases — and Emin has created the first ‘moving’ exhibition of its kind.

The fleet of four cars have individually been named as:
• You go around me
• Love is Love
• Dark Dark Dark
• I told you not to
— and will be seen around significant London locations and art-related events throughout the next week.

One car in this series was auctioned at the Contemporary Art Auction at Phillips de Pury in Victoria on 13th Oct. Proceeds from the sale went to Emin’s chosen charity, PEAS — to raise funds for a school library in Uganda. Additional funds will also help establish ongoing Fiat Art Projects in London. The project has been curated by Artwise Curators (www.artwisecurators.com) and Beat Capital. More info found on www.fiat.co.uk

Over the past serval years, I have been working on a Type III Project at my school FQMS, and now at GHS, in Howard County, MD. A type three project is a project that you may do for a year or more, and you explore the topic you selected. My topic is the Victory Junction Gang Camp (VJGC). Victory Junction Gang Camp states their mission as follows: “The Victory Junction Gang Camp enriches the lives of children with chronic medical conditions or serious illnesses by providing life-changing camping experiences that are exciting, fun, and empowering, in a safe and medically sound environment.”
