Charity For Hibiscus Children's Center
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LOCAL ARTIST DONATES
PAINTING TO HIBISCUS CHILDREN'S CENTER CHARITY AUCTION
December4, 2006
Lowell Fox, a local Indian River County artist who's paintings are in many
private and corporate collections throughout the United States, Canada and
Mexico as well as throughout our own Treasure and Space Coasts, has donated his painting "Ocean Canopy", a view of the Ocean Grill and
the Atlantic in Vero Beach to charity. He studied at the Art Institute of
Chicago, Le Museé des Beaux-Arts de Montréal and is a graduate from The Ontario
College of Art.
The gala charity auction will be held at The Vero Beach Museum Of Art 3001 Riverside
Park Dr, Vero Beach (772) 231-0707 on Saturday, December 9th.
The auction will benefit
the Hibiscus Children's Center, giving hope, providing shelter, and rebuilding
dreams for abused and neglected children.
This year's theme is "An
Enchanted Evening"
Fox also donated a painting last year for this cause at the "Puttin' On The
Ritz" auction, entitled "Wabasso Bait Shop". This painting, now in a private
collection, has been featured on television and became his most popular selling
giclée print (reproduction limited edition). The painting was the highest bid
painting offered that night, and Fox states "I was just so pleased to be able to
help this worthwhile cause."
Fox is known for his paintings of the local scene of The Treasure and Space
Coasts: the Beach, the Plaza Theatre, the Sebastian Tiki Bar, the Barber
Bridge, Cunningham's Pool Hall, the Riverside Café, the Stick Marsh and many
more. His paintings are reproduced under his supervision and available as
limited edition giclée prints. Of his work, he says he paints "scenes of landmark buildings,
music abstracted, pool halls, dives, marsh landings, barrier islands, locals,
tourists, kids, moms ...the waterfront".
Limited Edition Giclée prints, signed in an edition of 195 are available from
the artist's studio directly.
