Voici mes trois propositions pour un projet fantastique.
Illustration Friday a choisi cette semaine de venir en aide aux victimes du golfe du Mexique. IF s’associe à un blog du nom de http://ripplesketches.blogspot.com/ pour que des illustrateurs puissent faire une bonne action en créant une illustration qui sera vendue au coût de 10$. L’argent sera remis en entier aux organismes suivants : The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies et The International Bird Rescue Research Center.
Voici comment ça fonctionne.
Rendez-vous sur le site http://ripplesketches.blogspot.com/ Choississez votre illustration, faites un don a un organisme (ceux mentionnés ci-haut) et avec votre confirmation de don vous pourrez communiquer avec Kelly pour avoir l’illustration. Tous les détails sont sur le site de Kelly (en anglais). Pour plus d’info : ripplesketches@verizon.net.
Here my three propositions for Illustration Friday and the subject ripple.
I copy and paste the email that I received for the info about this great project:
oday we have a very special topic to announce. The topic is “Ripple”, suggested by Kelly Light. Kelly is making an effort to help with the Gulf oil spill. Please read below for the details on how you can contribute:
“It’s hard to make ripples in oil soaked water. But throw enough stones and you will!
It’s not about the politics or the corporation. It’s about the animals. It’s about not feeling helpless in the face of an overwhelming disaster. We’re illustrators. We don’t lose touch with that kid inside who marvels at the creatures who swim below and fly above the sea. We draw them. We are inspired by them. We need to help them.
The Ripple blog was started on the 45th day of the Deepwater Horizon Catastrophe. The oil spill in the Gulf is now over 50 days old with no sign of stopping. We may be too small as individuals to do some grand gesture- but together our small gestures can be grand.
This week’s Illustration Friday topic is “Ripple” and I ask you to consider creating your work this week as a small 2.5″ x 3.5″ sketchcard. The subject should pertain somehow to the Gulf - the oil spill - the oceans and the creatures that live in it and around it. The cards can be submitted to ripplesketches@verizon.net as a jpeg along with your links and a few sentences about you (ie: where you live, etc).
These will be made available for a small donation of $10.00 to either The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies (http://www.imms.org/) or The International Bird Rescue Research Center (http://www.ibrrc.org/). I have no affiliation with them. Every penny will go. When the cards sell, We ask for a donation confirmation and you will be asked to sign the back with a thank you. Then mail them to the address you are sent. If we all do small acts together- we can cause a ripple- and it can grow. We can DO SOMETHING. Thank you, thank you for checking this out and thinking about it.” ~ Kelly Light
