Painting 65 Red Roses
On May 15th, the 65 Red Roses painting was unveiled and officially donated by the Federation of Canadian Artists to the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. This one of a kind art project was created by 65 of the most prestigious Canadian artists in honour of Eva Markvoort, an incredible young woman who passed away on March 27, 2010 after a life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis. Measuring 5.5' x 10’, this stunning piece of art is comprised of 65 (8x10") renditions of a single red rose, all put together to form 65 Red Roses, a direct tribute to Eva. Each rendition is signed by the artist. To find out more about the project and to see the names of all participating artists visit the web site. The name of the project, ‘65 Red Roses’, symbolizes Eva’s online nickname. "65 Roses" is often used as a pseudonym for Cystic Fibrosis. Small children don't understand or cannot pronounce "cystic fibrosis" so they call it "65 roses". 65_RedRoses was Eva's nickname for her blog. She added RED, because it was her favourite colour. This history-making piece is currently being displayed at Maynards’ new showroom on Main St and West 2nd Street in Vancouver. It will be auctioned off on June 16, 2010. Interested buyers can also bid on line. For more information, please vist their web site. Commemorative prints of the painting are available for purchase at $65, plus shipping. Orders online or by telephoen please call 604-436-1158. The prints are 38" long x 21" high. All proceeds from the sale of the 65 Red Roses painting and prints will benefit the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
