I am delighted that once again I have been asked to participate in the Marie Curie Cancer Care Cornwall’s biennial major fundraising event, the ‘Diamonds Are Forever’ Charity Ball.
This afternoon Marianne Wright and Angela Coote, from the Marie Curie Cancer Care Cornwall Fundraising Group, visited my studio to select a painting to be auctioned on the night of the 2012 Charity Ball, which is to be held at the Atlantic Hotel on October 20th.
‘Longview On Longships (ii)’, one of my paintings of Longships Lighthouse which was completed in 2009 was unanimously decided upon by the ladies and is pictured below.
‘Longview On Longships (ii)’ (2009) ~ 40cm x 100cm ~ Marie Curie 2012 ~ Chris Billington
At the 2010 Charity Ball Grand Auction my ‘Wonderland’ raised a considerable amount of money for Marie Curie and I am hoping that this years selection will do well for them. They need the money to help fund those wonderful Marie Curie nurses who help to care for cancer patients and the terminally ill.
