Haiti "The Dust Is Yet To Settle" PLEASE READ, by Danny O'Connor on Jan 15, 2010 20:01:29 GMT 1, 
A bit different to some of my recent work with an abstract approach. Anyway I painted this piece in response to the recent earthquake in Haiti.
What I'd like people to do is donate at least £2 to MSF, then send me an email at oconnordanny@hotmail.com and tell me your name and that you have made a donation. After about a week of people donating I will round up the names that have been sent to me and draw a raffle and the winner will get this painting.
Obviously this is all done in good faith so please only contact me if you have donated.
You can Donate Here:
www.msf.org.uk/support_donate.aspx
Thanks in advance for your generosity.

Haiti "The Dust Is Yet To Settle" PLEASE READ, by Danny O'Connor on Jan 15, 2010 23:46:43 GMT 1, One of the donaters, raised the question: is this open to all countries? and the answer is yes! If you live in anywhere in the world I'll cover the shipping costs.
He also pointed out this will help when making international donations. www.msf.org/msfinternational/donations/

Haiti "The Dust Is Yet To Settle" PLEASE READ, by harryh74 on Jan 16, 2010 1:01:41 GMT 1, Nice one DOC,
Blogged up on artbleat (every little helps and all that)
I think you need to maybe set an end date for the giveaway so folk know they need to donate by a certain date or miss out.
Drymounted I stole your words (as they were better than mine)
I hope you are OK with this (credit given)

Haiti "The Dust Is Yet To Settle" PLEASE READ, by Heavyconsumer on Jan 16, 2010 6:52:47 GMT 1, Nice work Danny!!! I'd love to see 1 or 2 more abstract pieces soon too. Great idea to help generate some donations. I hope it kicks a few arses into gear and that noone tries to take advantage of your good will. We were already looking for the best place to make a donation and this was a good reminder of a great organisation, who do incredible work to provide medical aid to those in need.
just out of interest, what size is this piece? It's impossible to tell from the photo.

The only thing I would add is that I think the link you gave is for general donations to MSF - however they do have a specific Haiti Appeal page which can be found here: www.msf.org.uk/haitiappeal.aspx.

HC, it's 16x16 inches mixed media on canvas.
I'm in the middle of doing a series of abstract pieces which is why I decided to go that route for this piece as I'm kinda in that zone at the moment. Hopefully people are feeling it and are encouraged to donate.

Haiti "The Dust Is Yet To Settle" PLEASE READ, by Danny O'Connor on Jan 19, 2010 12:55:24 GMT 1, I've had a really positive response so far, so thanks to all those who've donated. I know some have given much more than I requested which is great, but every little helps, so if you're yet to send a donation please do so. U never know you might bag yourself a painting!
