Rob O'Connor Brings The Uber-famous "Lagadema" to ARTvision & Positive Impact
Dec 30 2009 06:03 AM
Like with the queen of England,
sometimes we must simply bow down to royalty.
The same holds true for Rob O’Connor’s ARTvision entry this year, “Lagadema Surveys her Territory.” Lagadema is the actual name of the furry creature featured in National Geographic’s “Eye of the Leopard.” Here’s the official trailer:
As well as a longer, lower-quality clip that shows Lagadema’s sudden compassion for a newborn:
Rob’s piece is a photo-to-canvas, adding unbelievable texture to an image that captures Lagadema at rest. When you make the corresponding donation to Positive Impact of $225, thanks to Rob’s generosity, you’ll receive a *free* DVD of the National Geographic documentary bearing Lagadema’s likeness.
Buy it today and lock in that last-minute donation! Our event is tonight and you can pick it up at Will’s house between 6-8 p.m.
Visit Rob on the Web: here, and on his popular, “Daily Slap” blog, BentBlog.com.
"Absurd Alphabet" Is The Latest & Greatest from Sean "Buck" Mansfield
Dec 12 2009 03:06 PM
(ATLANTA :: 12 December 2009)
After wowing fans with “Roots of
Innovation” last year,
Sean “Buck”
Mansfield returns to ARTvision
for a second year with “Absurd Alphabet” - a
shot he fired off after getting the hairy
eyeball at an antique store in Venice Beach,
Calif.
“They are numbers painted on glass,” he says. “They were just displayed like that at an antique shop in Venice Beach. It was a really quick pic snap as the owner was a crab - and I wasn't sure he'd appreciate it.”
“Absurd Alphabet” is photo-to-canvas and is offered at $175.

ARTvision 2009: A Year Unlike Any Other
Dec 08 2009 10:23 PM
(ATLANTA :: 8
December 2009) - It’s become a year unlike any
other... Who could have imagined
five artists in 2006
could
grow to nearly 30 in a mere four
years?
Actually, it makes a great deal of sense. People want reliable, hip and engaging home for their generosity, and hopefully ARTvision accomplishes that goal while remaining a reliable steward for its end beneficiary, Positive Impact. If you don’t know this organization, you should. They provide crucial mental-health and prevention services for people in metro Atlanta living with HIV.
That means the folks who are living with the disease can be treated with top-tier counseling - and people *without* it can learn their status and stay negative.
My contributions for this year’s event stand alongside selections from the nation and the world’s most accomplished, traveled, seasoned, talented artists. They give freely of their artistic vision to advance creative activism - and bring a smile to people’s faces in the process. (go to Will’s artist page for more)
