For the third consecutive year (and third year of the project) one of my art submissions has been selected as one of the 150 works on display during a traveling exhibition. My work was also included in the beautiful 2012 Peace Project book. A 12 in x 12 in panel reproduction of this work, Give the World Your Best, is available for purchase here. Proceeds from art/book sales help to support the Peace Project, including Operation Rise.

Thanks so much. I really love this piece. It looks better in real life when you can really see the texture.
