Signed by the Artist

Every year, towards the end of the 2 week session at camp we have an auction of items from the sales table. The auction is a fund (and fun) raiser for camp. Some of the items aren't that special (meaning they've been sitting on the table for almost 2 weeks and no one has bought them), and go for more than twice their ticket price. Hand-made items are very popular at the auction. I really liked this small painting done by our friend, Anna Rich, so Trevor bid on it and won it! It's about 4"x6". And she signed it for me!

Anna is an illustrator for children's books. Her latest book is called Under the Night Sky. It's about the Northern Lights and it's gorgeous. We also auctioned a copy of the book and it went for $40! Her son, Otto, who is 10, told us, "it took a really long time, believe me".
