Angie and I both go with ‘Rage’, with those same flame reservations. However, looking at the long run for a collector, it makes sense to tie the artwork to the event. Years from now this will remind people of the horrible situation, though that may not have been your original intent. That doesn’t really matter, nobody knows what goes on in an artist’s mind anyway!

If that idea raises the auction price, more good will be done for the cause plus the investor can visualize the potential.

Just a thought, how about offering signed prints also, limited quantity, for those less monitarily endowed? Cover your costs, more tax deductions, free publicity.

And yet I see “Rage” as being a very empowering piece for this cause. Good luck, Jenny!

I’m really not sure about Rage, having the flames in it and all …
