HELP SAVE THE BEINART SURREAL ART COLLECTIVE

I hope you will take a moment to read this post in its entirety. The beinArt collective is an international network of figurative artists united by their surreal and provocative styles. Collective founder, artist Jon Beinart, established the group in 2003 as a means to promote pioneering artists and share their work with the world. For more than a decade he has worked tirelessly, showcasing emerging and established artists alike, by publishing books featuring their work and curating group exhibitions. But the collective is now in danger of collapsing because funding is direly needed in order for him to continue his mission. Please join me in support of this cause. Even if all you can pledge is $5, that’s better than nothing. Every little bit adds up. Everyone has at least one dollar to spare. If everyone reading this post donates $1 we would end up with several thousand dollars that could be put towards the promotion of future visionaries who are still waiting to be discovered. There are an IMMENSE number of AMAZING rewards for this campaign (and more will be added throughout its duration) I encourage you to peruse the selection – you may find yourself donating more than you had planned on! :)

Another detail of my massive stipple drawing (in progress). I'm trying to get this baby finished for the upcoming beinArt Collective show at CoproGallery (Feb 2016). Only a billion more dots to go! #felttippen #dots #pudding #drawing #wip

Small detail of a massive felt-tip pen drawing in progress. This one is taking a very long time as i stupidly decided to render it with tiny dots. I like the effect, but it's hurting me! #drawing #stipple #elephantseahorse #sharkbaby #wip
