Special Pictures for Kids with Cancer

Hello fellow Safety Harbor residents and visitors.  I would like to introduce myself and tell you what I am starting this month. 

My name is Jim Ault.  I am a graphic artist and computer programmer.  My specialty is turning regular photographs into bright, sparkling pictures by creating a big new backdrop and adding shapes, color, and light.

The result is quite dramatic and the goal is to tell a story or communicate emotion.  The exciting part of January is that I am doing a crowd funding project for the first time, and the focus is on sending pictures to kids who have cancer.  I really like the idea that I can send something to a child that helps them smile and laugh every day.

Please consider helping me spend more time helping kids by visiting the web site at IndieGoGo. Bright Sparkling Pictures for Kids - Crowd Funding Campaign
IndieGoGo is a company that hosts thousands of crowd funding projects, and now mine is one of them.  Read carefully so you understand exactly what I am doing.

Of course, not everyone is in a position to make a contribution, but what is better for me -- that you spread the word.  Your help may mean that one more family and their child receive a beautiful picture they can add to the treasures they are collecting while they still have time.

A special thanks to the editor, Jeff Rosenfield, for talking with me and being so very supportive. As he says in the video clip on YouTube, the two of us will be working together to make the Safety Harbor Patch a better place for everyone.  I hope to do a lot more than just graphics and pictures.

Look for articles and exciting new ways of sharing the news in our town.  Jeff and I are planning to do a Google Plus Hangout very soon and everyone will be invited.

Thanks for reading, and see you around town.
