Art Blocks for Ghana

I was lucky enough to be involved in yet another fund raising effort for the children of Africa. In this case it was the Picture Book Project Foundation that put together a charity art auction of original works created by top artists within the animation and illustration community to provide boarding and education for orphaned children in Ghana, West Africa.

The theme given to all of the artists was Home. Below is a portrait of my grandfather in one of his happiest moments; Playing his accordion for his family. To see more amazing artwork and to learn more about the Picture Book Project Foundation, click here.
