Philanthropic Projects

Philanthropic work is very important to me and something I truly enjoy. 
Our local high school recently started requiring 40 hours of community
service work for high school seniors to graduate. 
This is something I support, so I had to put my
money where my mouth is and be a role model. 
Every year I donate some kind of painting to my community.  This
has involved schools, church nurseries, and our local chamber office. 
I have had the opportunity to work with other artists
and, even, some high school students choosing to
do some artwork for their own senior projects. 
By working on these projects it's not only a way
to try new things, it’s a way I can promote Wall Effects and give
back to the community that supports me.
