Artist Against ALS







The Arts community here in Peoria Illinois
have really come together to show their love and
support for our family since we have been diagnosed.
Artists Against ALS
is a group of wonderfully generous creative souls
who have donated their time,
talents and art work to help Tracy and I out.
To learn more than you might want to

Clubs at River City • Peoria IL


Here are just a few of the beautiful artworks
that are available for purchase through
The Clubs at River City.
You can make a bid and hope that you win
or
you can pay full price and take it home now!
Below see Mike Shular's Maple Leaf Gourd.
Hand cut and painted this work of art is truly unique!

Okay- the eyes have it!
Woman in the Water
painted by David Webster
is absolutely incredible!

I might have to buy this for myself
for my hypnosis office!
Wouldn't it LOOK great there?
oh...wait...it's a fund raiser for us....
huh....
Well, please give this painting a good home.
I love it soooooo much.
Here is another powerful work of Art
Gold in Light
This canvas is about 30" x 40"
painted with acrylic and has metallic paint
swept through, giving it
this glow about it.

Donated all sorts of beautiful paintings and photographs
at a great price so they would sell right away!


This is just a small sample of the fantastic art

Doug Leunig, Tom Gross, Leslie Schenkel and
many more artists will have art
for you to enjoy!
A special thank you to
Julie Vonachen at Moon Dancer
and her crew
for their love and support.

So- we've had Kick ALS at Luthy Botanical Garden,
Artists Against ALS at The River Front Art Market
and
Rock ALS at the Silver Dollar in Peoria Heights so far.
Look forward to other fun creative events for
