Best Friends by Alexandria Ross

Painting: Acrylics; high-quality print of the original painting
22"h x 18"w

I love my cats. I also love drawing and painting and have done it most of my life. My work includes; acrylics, oils, colored pencil, mixed media and watercolor. I like being challenged and trying new ways to express myself. Art makes me happy and my goal is simply to put a smile on someone’s face. If I can do that, then I’m successful!

Hearts-A-Fire A1-26 by Rene Dayan Whitehead

Sculpture: Carved stone: honeycomb calcite on honeycomb calcite base
9.5"h x 6"w x 5"d

For many years I have offered a Heart Sculpture to F2F for their auction. They perform miracles every day. From maquettes to finished sculpture, stone carving has a rhythm of its own. The mechanics of carving, the material take the lead and I follow. Each sculpture is the embodiment of dance, creation and transformation. This beautiful stone heart shines and lets the light in. That is the point of many of my sculptures: To use the power of beauty to expand, heal, teach, soothe, comfort and delight. My work is an expression of the dance of form, movement and transformation.

Yes, and Still by Christie Marks

Mixed Media 2D: Giclee reproduction on stretched canvas of mixed media painting of cactus
36"h x 36"w

'Yes, and Still' by Santa Rosa artist Christie Marks is from the artist's 'Close to Home' collection. The works in this collection are melancholy, reflecting the artist's deep empathy for forgotten rural America. The prickly pear cactus depicted here is over 100 years old and stands in the courtyard of the San Francisco Mission Solano in Sonoma.

Painting: Framed original pastel painting
12"h x 24"w; with frame 18"h x 30"w

I've submitted a painting to Art for Life every year since it's inception: the worthiest fundraiser I participate in. I've painted with pastels since I was a teenager and find them a very seductive medium, easy to handle, vibrant in color and easily collectible!

Cosmos by Brian & Nancy Roberts

Glass: A fused glass art piece
14.5"h x 14.5"w x 2"d

We love this event. Cosmos is a fused glass plate with a gradual recessed center. Its beauty is best viewed upright on a display stand with backlit natural light. This allows you to see variations of transparent color shapes and swirls that change as the daylight changes. Or, you can view with front illumination and see sparkles and deeper color shapes and swirls. We hope you enjoy Cosmos's beauty. Thank you, Nancy & Brian.

Rainbow Confetti Vase by Terri Hamilton-Gahart

Glass: Opaque white glass vase with rainbow colored glass confetti
6-1/2” h x 10”w

I am a self-taught glass artist and have over 20 years of experimenting. Glass is a tricky collaborator and sometimes has a mind of its own producing unexpected colors and results. My work spans delicate lacy vessels to sparkling vases and smaller works such as dragonfly paperweights.
