140 hours of fame - taking art auctions to a whole new level...


Hi Everyone...This is my finished piece from a series I started in 2009...my wood and pyrography work titled "Transformation"....you are the first people to check it out...
I am so excited to be participating in a historical event at Galerie St. George in Staten Island, New York with this one of a kind piece!!!


This is a rare opportunity for someone to own my first wood and pyrography piece....The event is called “140 hours of Fame” an on-line art auction hosted toatlly via social networking....

Galerie St. George announced its “140 Hours of Fame®”, a unique online art auction designed to introduce emerging artists to a global marketplace. The auction will begin on 5 November 2009 at 12:01 p.m. EST and last 140 hours, through 11 November 2009 at 8:01 p.m. EST.
The 140-hour auction will take place entirely on the world wide web. The gallery has designed an auction system allowing TWITTER® users worldwide to enter their bids online.
Gary Brant, Director, explained, “With the huge popularity of TWITTER®, we wanted to reach out directly to this group of highly sophisticated users. This event will give our participating artists an opportunity to be seen by art buyers and collectors alerted to the event through the power of social networking.”
