Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) was established in 1971 by a small group of French doctors who had worked in Biafra. Upon their return, they were determined to find a way to respond rapidly and effectively to public health emergencies, with complete independence from political, economic and religious influences.
Today, MSF is one of the world's leading independent international medical relief organizations, working in close to 65 countries worldwide and with operational centres and national offices in 19 countries.
I am grateful that medical care is available to me and am well aware that this is not the case in much of the world. I heartily support the work that MSF does world wide and was reminded that one person can make a difference and I have the means to generate financial support. Here's the plan: I am designating one painting this year for Médecins Sans Frontières. When this painting sells, which could be next week or next year, I will make a donation of 100% of the unframed price of $250.00. The painting will be matted and ready for framing.
This is the painting I have chosen.
Barn on Parker Mt. Rd.(watercolour, 7.5 x 10.5 inches) $250.00
To purchase this painting contact me at lwilliamsstudio@gmail.com. or visit me at the Annapolis Farmer's and Traders Market each Saturday morning from the May long week end until Thanks Giving.

We can each make a difference.
