Help me help others

So what do I do when I am not painting and making courses?  I am glad you asked!  (Although I never really leave my beloved website behind, it is my favourite travel companion after all! ) When I am not doing the painting thing I am volunteering.  Through an organization called Catalyst Plus I travel to developing countries to improve the economic and social well-being of the poorest, most marginalized and vulnerable people, particularly women and girls.  Though my area of expertise is digital marketing, web development and content creation, Catalyst sends people from all sorts of backgrounds to help in several sectors.  When you purchase a class or a piece of artwork you are helping me take time away on these assignments.  If you are interested in becoming a volunteer I would be happy to help you get started.  The picture here is from a recent assignment to the Philippines where I worked with local coffee producers.
