Don Gunnerson to be Sauteed on Friday

In today's Advocate, there is a wonderful profile of local artist Don Gunnerson who is to be the subject of a good-natured "sautee" at Friday evening's Grand Illusions event to raise funds for Ohio Cancer Research Associates.  (One of the speakers at Friday's event will be Bob McGaughy who will be our host the very next night for the auction.)

The article is a nice profile of Gunnerson and his many contributions to both the culture and the landscape of Licking County.

We are fortunate to have had examples of his work to auction at our Java & Jazz events.  

His gifts as an artist are undeniable and his contributions to Licking County are substantial.  

The View to Go With Your Room

"Windows on the Grand Canal - Venice" by Don Gunnerson

He calls it a "small painting", but there is nothing small about the talent.  

Local artist Don Gunnerson has been producing much sought-after artworks for a long time and Mental Health America has been fortunate to have benefited from being able to auction some of his pieces over the last 12 years.

While prior subjects have included Ohio landscapes and New England seaports, this year we are able to offer you a panorama of the Grand Canal in Venice.

Mr. Gunnerson has used his training in architecture to capture the grand architecture of one of the world's most beautiful cities.  The right bid at our March 5th event will capture this prize piece for your collection....
