Tribute to Survivors and Firefighters Battling Wildfires in California
Whether it's because I lived in California for a number of years or because the magnitude of the blazing destruction taking place there at present is so overwhelming, "Redbird Sifting Beauty out of Ashes" is my tribute to those caught up in the 2018 inferno. As horrendous as it is, so many are rising to the challenge of surviving, continuing to fight the monstrous flames, and somehow rebuilding shattered lives.
Yet at the same time that I find myself so deeply moved by the devastation taking place in California, I realize we are living in an era when different kinds of "natural" and man-made disasters are forcing many people to start all over again all over the world. "Redbird Sifting Beauty out of Ashes" is a visualized hope they all find the strength, faith, determination, and support needed to succeed.
I'm not sure how to go about it at this point but am looking for ways to donate a sizable percentage of sales from this work to relief funds for people coping with the wildfires. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate receiving them via either message here or in the comments section.

Thank you Swedish Attitude Design. Although this image was posted more than a year ago, it still remains extremely relevant in late 2019 as people in the state of California are currently battling horrendous fires in the North & the South.

Hard to believe I posted this work back in August and the good people of California are now battling a new round of deadly fires. Heartbreaking on so many levels, particularly with the reported unprecedented death toll for such a catastrophe in the state, but the struggle to survive and also thrive continues.
