This painting was painted specifically to raise money for a special appeal. Teddies for Loving Care. This charity provides teddy bears to hospital accident and emergency departments to be given to children to calm them and aid in recovery. The painting was raffled and raised £400.00. I asked the winner if he would be willing to donate the painting to a children's Hospital, to this he agreed. The painting was presented yesterday by the winner and me to a children's Hospice named Zoe's Place. I have transferred the copyright to the Hospice to enable them to raise funds from sale of prints and use the image in any way they can
