Giving Earth Project
I have the
desire to give something wonderful to others who are voluntarily reaching out
and making this earth better. As an
artist, I recognize that I am able to create works of beauty, but more importantly
I know that my art is able to inspire others.
Ironically, what drives me to create my art are the inspiring stories of
other great lives. I am always seeking
out new beautiful stories and individuals to inspire me.
My hope is to give a bit of creative clay
earth that reflects a story of goodness back to those that are already giving
goodness to the earth in some sort of charitable and loving way.
How Does
the Giving Earth Project Work?
·
I will be making and giving away free
pottery to reward individuals who are making an impact in life.
This pottery will be made specifically for that inspiring person and
will represent their inspiring lives.
·
You can nominate individuals that you
know who are selflessly making the world a little or a lot better.
Write a description about this person.
Include information about: the
person’s name, what they are doing to serve, Why you chose to nominate this
person, the kind of good characteristics this person has, life histories,
trials or achievements, how you know this person, what interests or hobbies
this person may have, anything that would help me to know this person’s
inspiring story… (The more detail the more inspirations I will have to create
art tailored to these great lives. You
may include photographs in your submissions).
Written nominations can be as short as a paragraph or two pages long. Be sure to include your name and
contact information so that I may reach you.
·
Nominations will be read, reviewed,
and then selected for a random drawing.
·
If your nomination is chosen from the
drawing, you will be notified and I will begin creating a work of clay art specifically for that inspiring
person.
·
Once the pottery is completed you
will be able to award your inspiring person with this token of gratitude for
their efforts to make the world a better place.
