Nie Nie Auction: Blank Canvas Painting

Paul Ferney is donating one 18" x 24" blank canvas. Paul will paint a custom oil painting of the winning bidder's choice. Want a portrait done*? A picture of your house? A landscape of your part of the country? The sky is the limit. (*The only limitation is if you choose to have a portrait painting, it can only be of one individual.) Every last penny from this auction will go directly to the Nie Nie Recovery Fund. This prize is valued at $2200.

Paul Ferney is an oil painter based in San Francisco. He received a BFA degree from Utah State University where he studied under Glen Edwards. Paul is a part of the Belcher Art Studio community, where he keeps a studio. In 2005 Paul became involved in the Plein Air painting community and has participated in the Sonoma Plein Air Festival. Paul paints Utah landscapes and has recently been inspired by the beautiful local wine country and the vibrant cityscapes of San Francisco. Here is Paul's website and here is his blog.
