Want this painting for only $25?!

You can help me raise funds for the Auckland floods and Cyclone Gabrielle response, by purchasing raffle tickets for the sale of this painting!

Hearing about the devastation that is still unfolding from these recent weather events is heartbreaking, and I want to do my part.

I was planning a silent auction instead but like this idea better as more of you can be involved in giving to support our neighbours, friends and family.

DETAILS:
🍂 Each ticket is $25 NZD.
🍂 All proceeds minus the cost of professional packaging & shipping to the winner will be donated to Red Cross.
🍂 To enter please visit my art page on Facebook or Instagram- Rosanne Croucher Art, and message me your name, email address, and number of tickets you want, so I can send through payment details.
🍂 Winner will be drawn on Friday night the 24th February
🍂 The painting will be shipped the following week and I’ll pop a screenshot of the donation confirmation email up on my stories.
🍂 This painting is called Spirited, and is one of my early large landscape works. Oils on canvas, 1m x 1m in size. Based on a windy autumn day scene in Te Anau, New Zealand.

Please share this with family and friends so we can raise as much money as possible ($2700 raised so far!), and good luck for the draw!!
