366 Drawings for Good
The Aldas Project started as a year-long project that began on January 1, 2012. "Aldas" (pronounced ull-dosh), is the Hungarian word for "blessing". The idea for this project was two-fold - a personal challenge to create an original drawing every day, for a year; and to raise money for three of Kristy's favorite non-profit organizations: 826 National, The Schoerke Foundation, and the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. The project was very successful that first year, and lives on today. I continue to create and sell affordable and accessible original artwork, made of archival materials, and continue to give 25% of each sale to the buyer's choice of the three charities. Additionally I am pleased to now offer a small selection of products inspired by the original artwork, also with proceeds going to charity. There are no additional fees of any kind, including shipping.
Yes, there are many artists out there selling their wares. However, what sets Aldas apart is the level of time and detail put into each piece. These are not sketches, drawing exercises, or prints, but stand alone pieces of art that have hours of time poured into each one. Additionally, the price point for each piece is set very reasonably between $25 and $200 because I believe that high quality, original artwork should be accessible to everyone.
