Secret ArtWorks 2013

The Secret’s Out: Sort Of

I guess it isn’t really a secret that I usually donate at least one original painting to Secret ArtWORKs every November. The painting you see pictured is one that was purchased at last year’s event. All the works are 5 x 7” originals created by local artists and you don’t know who created one you purchase until after you buy it!

ArtWorks is the organization that paints public murals on buildings in Cincinnati and the Pendleton Art Center got one of our very own this summer. It’s a great summer program that employs local art students (for pay) under the supervision of local artists. Secret ArtWorks is an important fundraiser and, although I can’t donate $$, I can give my time and talent to support their efforts.

You can come down to the Westin Hotel lobby in Fountain Square from Mon Nov 18 to Thurs Nov 21 to see all the Secret Artworks and try to figure out which 3 I painted. Or you can look at them online at

On Friday, November 22, at the Mercantile Building on 115 E. Fifth Street in Cincinnati, the doors will open and you can run and try to be the first one to purchase the art you want to buy (each piece is $75). And the local food being showcased this year sounds just great! This has always been a delightful party, for a good cause. Hope to see you there in support of ArtWorks.
