Cyber Monday = Faux Pink 'Boob Drive'

Faux Pink’s First Annual ‘Boob Drive’
Goal: Sell 95 pieces of ‘Boob Art” by Dec 21
Because… Over 95% of women diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer survive when it is found early. (Karen Cater, DPHHS)
Why: Raise money for ‘Early Detection’ Programs Because… “women with lower incomes (less than $20,000 annual household income) are less likely to have had a breast physical exam than women with higher incomes (MT BRFSS, 1996).

Happy Thanksgiving! A Bird of Another Color...


Aunt Dianna's Flamingo painting is done.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day and enjoys their families. We miss those that have passed today, but continue to work to save our loved ones through early detection of breast and cervical cancer.
God Bless, Jill and Shelly

November Cancer Support Group




We had a wonderful night sharing and laughing. Sue and Barb picked up their canvases that we started the month before. Sue, Kristy and Linda started new pieces. Tips and stories were shared. One book that was extremely helpful to Jan was "Anti-Cancer, A New way of Life" by David Servan Schreiber, MD, PhD. It talks about how important nutrition and alternative therapy is for the body. Next meeting is scheduled for December 11th 7pm at Peak Physical Therapy. We're planning on making Christmas 'Boob' balls. We're so weird... but have fun, and that's what matters. Hope to see everyone there.

Gallery Night


Rumor has it that Shelly looked really TALL on the KPAX interview. View it on the home page of our website www.fauxpink.org. Remember that if you didn't make it last Friday the exhibit will be up all this month. The studio is decorated like a big round pink party.... what else would we do?

Spokane/Coeur d'Alene Party






Shelly's aunt Dianna hosted a party last week. New canvases are underway. Thanks Dianna and my sweet cousin Robin!

Watch tonight on KPAX to see the media coverage of our Gallery Night. Our 'Early Detection' piece is generating a little buzz around town. It is such a powerful image. We soooo appreciate the gals that were brave and took part in the photo. You can see this and other works all month at Steven Begleiter's studio downtown at 223 W Front.
