>>
>> Overwhelmed by the oil spill in the Gulf, illustrator Kelly Light did what she does best—she began to draw. Following her example, fellow illustrators

>> across the globe. Each card is available for $10.00 (USD) each and is signed by the artist. 100% of the proceeds are being donated to the Institute for
>> Marine Mammal Studies and the International Bird Rescue Research Center.

>> Kelly writes that "small sketches - small - donations - small acts together can cause a ripple..." We agree. We've posted this on our Facebook page and
>> are sharing the information with friends and colleagues. We hope you'll consider doing the same.
