Sonoma Barn, by Charu Clark

Charu grew up in India and now lives in northern California and works at Pixar Animation Studios as a lighting artist.

"Though my day job entails the use of a computer more than a paintbrush, of all technical fields related to computer graphics, Lighting feels the most akin to painting in the real world. That said, the thrill of a paintbrush in my hands is something I cannot live without."

Charu has donated a beautiful original oil painting titled 'Sonoma Barn' which will be available to purchase on March 10th at Laguna Town Hall in Elk Grove.  100% to benefit Chicks In Crisis.
