"Imagine One's Dream" a limited edition print, signed and dated by Darren Jones, a Chicago artist and brother to Jennifer Jones, will be auctioned at the 2022 District Rotary 5320 gala. Online auction participants will be allowed to place bids up to 5PM on Friday, October 14th. After 5PM the online auction bidding will close and live auction bidding will commence at the District 5320 gala. If the highest online bid is not outbid by the live auction, then the online bidder will win the print.
The "Imagine One's Dream" original painting was a combination of acrylic paints, industrial staples, shredded studio paperwork, plaster and beach sand painted on wooden panel. For this piece, Jones used beach sand from their family cottage in Ontario, and paper he shredded and used from the Rotary website to include the "Objects of Rotary and the Four Way Test." After the textures were layered and dry Jones said he began the colour process by literally applying paint to his hands and then onto the panel. The colour pallette was inspired by the colours of Rotary and the Presidential theme. "The gradient shading is also done on purpose to create a more landscape emotion, representing the horizon we all walk towards!!" states Jones.
The numbered print includes a signed Certificate of Authenticity and is valued at $800. It has been beautifully framed in brushed silver as suggested by the artist. It would be a beautiful addition to a home or office to reflect the importance Rotary plays in the lives of people around the world.
A transaction fee of 5% plus $0.30 will be applied, to ensure that the intended bid amount is received by the organization.
Pick up instructions will be delivered upon purchase by District Governor, Dan Ouweleen.
