One of the first auction items Char and Chuck Fowler won at a moCa auction in the 1990s was a commissioned portrait—a deeply personal painting of their three daughters that still hangs proudly in their bedroom today. Now, you have the rare opportunity to create a lasting treasure of your own. Beloved Cleveland-based artist and art educator Sarah Curry will collaborate with you to craft an expressive, dynamic portrait of the two subjects of your choosing. Known for capturing both likeness and spirit, Curry’s work reflects the essence of her sitters. This package includes an artist consultation and one, approximately 18x24 inch painting of two subjects, to be completed by May 1, 2026.
