Connected as Clare Conniff (288 friends)
Clare is new to the Kickstarter world! She recently graduated from Bard College with a degree in Art History and now resides in New York City. She is currently trying to break into the art conservation world. But, in the mean time, she manages restaurant special events, works with Sinergie, a small art conservation organization in Italy (whose website can be found at http://www.sinergos.net/), and experiments on art pieces that she hopes no one wants. She is on Twitter--@ceconniff.
Well Done!
Congratulations Claire, I am so proud of you for taking the initiative for this - and proud of your support network for following through and making it happen.
Best wishes for this project and for all the exciting and valuable things you do in the future.
Big hugs to to Mom and Dad - and of course - Omega himself.:)
I'm so glad this was successful! Can't wait to see the results of your hard work.
I dearly loved my grandfather; when Ilearned of this I *had* to help. I'm so happy the goal was met!
Yay! What great news to see that the goal was met! Good luck to you and a big hug to your grandfather. :-)
Happy to see this got funded
Found this "accidentally" while looking through the various projects. My father was an artist too, and I felt your love for your grandfather come through. Good Job and Good Luck!
