Calling All Angels


Artist Robert Morgan told me about a very cool event happening Saturday evening at Siren Studios in Los Angeles. It's called GET ART 5 and raises money for Project Angel Food whose mission is to "nourish the body and spirit of men, women and children affected by HIV/AIDS, cancer and other life-threatening illnesses." They deliver more than 13,000 meals every week to people in need.

That's a lot of meals and in order to fulfill their mission, they need funds. GET ART 5 is one of their main fundraisers. It's a live art experience with music, hosted cocktails and hundreds of original artworks for sale at affordable prices. Morgan is one of dozens of artists participating.

The photo at the top of this post is by Andre Chambers and shows artist Alex Schaefer painting a portrait of Robert at GET ART 3.

Below is artist Gregory Siff painting for last year's event at Siren Studios. The video was directed by John Wellington Ennis and was shot from 8:30am to 4pm.

As Robert says, "Get ready, get set, GET ART!"
