The money realized will be used by each inmate to buy Wham Whams and Zoo Zoos (candy :-)!); or what little extras they can obtain.
This offering is for printed copies only; as a way of introducing folks to the ‘real’ thing. I will send you a 8x11 on plain paper; your choice of ONE of the pictured pieces of artwork. You are given permission to reproduce as many copies as you like for personal use and/or free distribution; however, you are NOT TO SELL copies.

I will color print a hard copy and mail it to you in a large envelope :-)!
Be sure to add me to your favorites list! J
