Paolo Bellosillo's NU12 # 7 - "chARTity" to market paintings of underprivileged

I am always fascinated with arts paintings. It is one of my passions in life. I have always wanted to buy art paintings of all kinds, portraits, landscapes, and abstracts.
The beauty of any art paintings is in the eye of the beholder. If someone paints a face of a person and it does not look like a real person when the painting is finished, it is not necessarily an ugly painting.
Beauty in art is not the finished product itself, but its the work and the effort that brought the finished product. In the above example, if the painting of a face did not look like a real person when finished, but the painter was able to draw that way because of his frustrations in the government, that art is beautiful.
Buying art paintings are very expensive. It will cost you in the range of P5,000 up to P500,000! That's frustrating for art lovers like me but does not have the capital to purchase one.
Now, consider this. What if the buying the piece of art will not only cost you less, but will also allow you to help the needy people? That, in my opinion, is a good investment for your money.
That is "chARTity" - a non-profit organization that lets the artistic talents of the underprivileged and the disabled shine and be recognized by the privileged ones. It will be a charitable institutions that sells the art paintings of the underprivileged and disabled people, and all money and recognition will directly go to the person without any profit to the organization.

Not only will the organization offer affordable art paintings, it also allows people to help the needy.

An art painting that is supposed to look like a beach shore but turned out to look like a swamp, but was painted by a child with cancer, is a magnificent art piece that is worthy of displaying at our homes.
That is CHARITY and ART put together - "chARTity."
