"Hallelujah" Oil on Canvas - 24x30" - Copyright Cyndy Carstens A Heart-felt Thank You Your support and encouragement is so much appreciated! The Painter's Concert - A Mother's Love Raffle was incredibly successful because of you! Just over $11,000 was raised to help with my son Jonathan's medical treatments to fight mulitple myeloma bone cancer! He and his young family, including 10-month Elliot, and all of us are grateful beyond words. The painting above was painted during the "concert" against a 3-hour time clock. I believe I won! The painting is titled "Hallelujah" after the musical composition in Handel's "Messiah" which musicians Sherry Finzer & Darin Mahoney were playing as I signed the piece. My beautiful daughter, Robynn, drew the name Dave & Melodie C. of Chicago from the bin full of tickets. My husband, Doug, drew the name of Ian & Wendy A. of the Phoenix area as winners of "Forever", the 2nd painting. It was a magical evening - all made possible by your generosity and unbelievable support. As a special thank you, please follow this link to a dedicated page on my website where you can download your own copy of "Hallelujah" to use as a screen saver or print out as a reminder of our gratitude. (I would be happy to sign it for you if you bring it by the gallery or mail it to me.) "HALLELUJAH" Painting I wish I had more eloquent words . . . just "Thank you"!                                      Cyndy  #fineartmagazine
