Mike Dring is an old school friend of mine, a really nice guy, but when he was 23 years old, broke his neck in a road traffic accident, resulting in paralysis from the upper chest down medically he is classified as having a complete Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) resulting in Tetraplegia (level C6).
Mikes friends and family are attempting to raise funds to purchase an adapted car which will enable him to drive independently.
Mike has always been a passionate Art dealer and collector, organising many exhibitions and has made many friends in the industry.
These friends and Artists have had the idea to mount an exhibition of work donated to raise funds for this cause, Artist confirmed as donating/creating work for the show so far are -
Xenz, Mr Jago, SPQR, China Mike, Rourke Vandal, Will Barras, Levi C, James Baker, Angel 41, Dan Kitchener, Ripper 1331, Hero, Grafter, Dell, Ill Joseph , Carrie, Reichardt aka The Baroness ,Whatson, Nick Walker , Damon Ginandes, K Guy, Eelus, Ben Allen, Mudwig, Dora, Brian Jones , Tom Hine, Eco, Pinky, Guy Mckinley, Andy Council, Ria Hill, Richt, Misteraitch, Milk, Pam Glew, Guy Denning, Replete, Mau Mau, Inkie, Doc, Romanywg, Jody, Dicy, Simon Riley, Tesura, Agent Provocateur, Kay7four, Idiom, CZK, Neverwork, Meexed, Iamcxxx, L.E.T, FAKE, Oliver Winconek, Jef Aersol, Crazy Jake, Ian Francis, Leftery, Rene Gagnon, Dan Baldwin, Cheba, Soker , Acer One, Cartrain, MrTGrowth, Rowdy, David Cobley, Jo Lees, Morgan Penn, Vincent Brown, Fran McGarry, Lynne Holehouse.
What we would like is ONLY a small postcard size work (A5) 15 x 21 cm, it can be anything you like, a painting or drawing on card, paper, board, canvas or anything you like, so long as it stays A5 size. All work would form a Mystery Postcard sale where buyers can purchase any piece for only £50. It is important that you sign the back of your work (NOT THE FRONT), so that the buyers do not know who the Artist is until after theyve paid.
Many of the Artists already involved have international recognition and the event promises to be one of the major regional exhibitions of the year. The show is being arranged for September so please send work to -
Get Dring Mobile - Postcards, 46 The Hawthornes, Staple Hill, Bristol. BS16 5PQ
by no later than August 21st. It may be advisable to pack the work well so that it doesnt get damaged.
If you feel you may be able to donate a Postcard picture the please email me at
vince@vincentbrown.co.uk , also, if you know of any other kind hearted Artists who may get involved, then please foreword this message to them, the more we have then the more chance we have of raising the necessary funds.
All contributing Artists will be invited to the exhibition in September.
Thanks for your help with this!
Vincent








By the way, I haven't managed to send my charity piece as i have been busy sorting a few things out! Is it too late to send still?

We need the work by mid August at the latest. I'm not getting as much help with this as I'd wished.
Can't wait to see what you do!

I really appreciate the realism - or rather naturalism - of your work, very expressive and poignant.
