The Converse Blank Canvas Project & Auction

Thanks to the awesome people at Artisan I have some images of my contribution to the Converse Blank Canvas Project which is currently on display at their gallery.
 There are 20 pairs of converted connies in the show and all are being auctioned for charity (here).
The auction closes on July 26, 2012. All proceeds will be donated to the Cathy Freeman Foundation, supporting indigenous education.
