Our son O works for the Alzheimer's Research Trust and he is being kept very busy dealing with the donations coming in as a result of the publicity surrounding Terry Pratchett's wonderful donation of a million dollars to support the work of the trust. This is my only non-art related post in the blog but I hope that you will take a moment to read it.
Here is Mr Pratchett's speech where he explains his reasons for the donation.
"Match it for Pratchett" has grown up among the blogging community to try to match the donation with a further million dollars.
You can make a donation directly here.
My grandmother and J's father both suffered from Dementia and fighting the disease is a cause close to our hearts.
I am donating 100% of the proceeds of the auction of my large engraving "Walking on Water".
Here is the Ebay Listing.
Here is the engraving. A is the figure on the right; O is on the left.
Thank you very much for taking the trouble to read this.

That's a beautiful piece. As of an hour or so ago, there is now a website at http://www.matchitforpratchett.org/
I'll talk to Chris who is managing it about an auction / events listing.
