Art with Heart gains momentum

Art with Heart 2008 already has its first 11 artists on board and is now eagerly awaiting the next 50. Created by Stanley Edwards, director of Platypus Productions, the idea of Art with Heart is to gather “frustrated” artists working in the advertising, marketing, production and media industries to join him in rediscovering their creative talents while staging an auction to benefit a chosen charity.

This is the second year of Art with Heart and this year it is hoping to grow the project substantially. To do this, however, it needs generous artists to donate their work for auction later in the year. Bizcommunity.com's very own assistant editor Simone Puterman, who recently took up art classes again, will be one of those contributing artists.

So if you are a frustrated artist looking for a way to unleash your creative genius, you have just found it. As there is no limit on what Art with Heart is looking for, this means contributing artists can work in any medium, submit as many pieces as they wish and basically just let their imagination run away with them.

Last year, monies raised at the Art with Heart auction were donated to the Heart of Healing (www.heartofhealing.co.za) and Hollywood Heart (www.hollywoodheart.org)
