Approximately 1.3 million women and 835,000 men are physically assaulted by an intimate partner annually in the United States.





Wow, what a downer, yeah? Well, that's reality.

Why do I mention this? Let me tell you. This Sunday (10/26) is Wonder Woman Day here in Portland. Wonder Woman Day is a part of National Domestic Violence Month, and is a big event that raises awareness of the issue of domestic violence, as well as raises money for some women's shelters and hot lines.

So, why am I telling you this? Well, besides the fact that this a good cause, and everyone should support it, I'm donating art to the event.
























It's 9 inches by 12 inches done in Marker on Bristol Board. Hopefully, it will help to raise some money for the cause.

For more information on the event and on other artists that will be at the event and who's art will be up for auction, please go here:
