Awesome Kevin, as usual.

The heck with that Canadian money. $175.00.

Hmmm. If Mr. Ripley would do a Springsteen-Evans-Orr triptych, it would pretty much cover the adultery Clause.

Thanks for your generous donation, holden, I'm humbled the piece was able to raise so much for a good cause. I hope you enjoy it.

I don't know where you live, but if it's within a few hours' driving distance of Eastern Massachusetts, I can hand-deliver the piece to spare the aggravation/worry of shipping it. If you live further away than that, we'll have to bite the bullet, although so far I've had no major problems with mailing my art (knock on wood). Feel free to PM me to discuss this further.

Being that you currently have the high bid for the Gehrig drawing, we can obviously wait until that auction is closed before proceeding with any arrangements.

Thanks again!

I had the piece framed today at Rich's shop, just wanted to post a pic of it so people will be aware of what he donated to the cause:
