Update #4: Thanks for your help
Our "Someone for a Moment" project is in the final hours of raising funds. A respectable amount was raised and it's pleasing to have had such substantial individual pledges. The majority of you pledged over the pledge amount you selected for that reward. A few of you, I don't think I know. It's wonderful you would try to support my efforts. Unfortunately, we will fall short of our funding goal and you will not be charged. Kickstarter or Amazon will likely confirm this in a separate email. A couple of you I have been in direct contact with and I already know you do want a framed print and I will continue to work directly with you. If anyone else is interested, starting January 1, 2012, prints and framed prints can be purchased directly from our website at www.lookcreative.com.
This is a wonderful project and I will continue to raise funds on my own through print sales. As prints sell, the funds will be used for this project so I can complete the work. It may take a little longer but I will create this work and it will be donated to a hospital. My goal is staying the same, to expose families and individuals to this work so it can help motivate them to become positive, inspiring people. The prints and eventually the large donated work will accomplish this goal.
In the short term, I will be discussing a similar project with the Children's Hospital of Milwaukee. I may have the opportunity to work with the children to help create a work of their own. They will each create a small section that will make up a larger image for permanent display.
Thanks again for your time and interest in supporting this project. Even though this Kickstarter project will not successfully raise our funds, I have some extra experience and confidence moving forward.
Update #3: New FAMILY PLEDGE Level Reward Added
We've added a new family pledge level reward. When you select that pledge level you will receive up to 6 (six), 2-by-2-inch sections for your family to draw together. Each of you can have your own and you'll be able to spend some memorable time together helping to create this work. We will install all family's pieces together. We have a reserve of sections so none of the pieces will be diagonal or scattered. I realized this is what this project is all about, bringing families together, so after some figuring I was able to add this as a pledge level. A couple of you already selected the $35 pledge level but gave more. I am pleased to tell you, you will now be receiving the new family pledge level. You will not need to make any changes and have automatically been added. We've adjusted the quantities to allow you to receive the upgraded reward. Everyone can upgrade their pledge amount if they would like to include the whole family. It will even help us successfully fund this project. Thanks again for all your support!
Update #2: Good progress yesterday, WCUB this morning.
Our timeline passed the half way point a few days ago and yesterday was a great day. Thank you very much to all the new backers. There's not much time left but a lot can happen quickly. WCUB has also welcomed us to "The Breakfast Club" this morning at 9:30. If you're in the broadcast area, listen in while I talk about the project. I'm getting all dressed up so I look good for the show!
Update #1: Early Success
It's the early stages of our project but I'm excited about the support you've given me. If just a little extra interest is shown in the project it will be given additional exposure and be visible to more people to help it along. If there is anyone you think may be interested, please let them know about it. We all have a little artist in us and this is a way to permanently have your work on display and helping families! I really want this to happen, it's unique in many ways! The final installed work will be very powerful!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

My work at Look Creative often inspires children. I've created intriguing spaces in a variety of children's areas. My design and murals are a part of those projects. That creative work is what makes our projects so unique.
