International Chinese Calligraphy & Ink Painting Society   

The mission of  ICCPS is to share the passion of sumi-e & calligraphy around the world without distinguishing between styles & backgrounds. Under the direction of master sumi-e painter, Ransui Yakata, the institute seeks to form a community of independent sumi-e painters with often different styles, but infused with the same passion. We are currently in our second year of existence. We have branches in Tokyo, China, North America, Netherlands/Belgium, France, Germany, Australia, and our newest branch in Russia.

Art for Cancer Foundation 

Founded by Cid Palacio, The ART for Cancer Foundation is a non-profit organization, committed to improving the quality of life of people living with cancer by providing an outlet for creative expression through the arts, and by supporting research into the cause, control and cure of cancer. 

Sometimes there just are no words to express how you are feeling when you're living with cancer. Painting is a powerful way to let your hands do the talking for you. The foundation offers many programs and workshops.

This is my contribution to this very special art exhibit. As many of you know, I used the creative process and my art as an integral part of my healing from a massive stroke. This artwork was inspired by the courage and spirit of my daughter who is currently fighting leukemia (AML). 60% of the proceeds from the sale of this work will be donated to the AFC Foundation.
