Do not allow your faded photographs to become a past memory. Preserve and protect what is most precious.
Every now and then you run across somebody who is so gifted that you feel compelled to share her with others!
Sandie Friedland and I have known each other for many years, I have come to depend on her support, wisdom and knowledge. She is a incredible artist, one who displays skill, talent and compassion in her magnificent works of art. She captures her subjects using her palette of colors and makes them come to life on canvas. Sandie’s skill is not limited to portraits, she also designs company logo’s, dabbles in graphic design, photo restoration, and much more. During her last visit to Virginia, Sandie took photographs of my three girls, Noel, Holly and Faith. Much to my surprise she went home and immediately went to work on creating a masterpiece. The sample of her painting is better than I could have ever imagined. She captured the mischievousness in Faith’s eyes, the loyalty in Noel and the sweet and soft side of Holly.
Sandie has a generous spirit and supports many worthy causes. She recently was commissioned, through auction to paint three special portraits for the Animal Rescue Charity Event in Vegas. She works with non-profit rescue organizations and animal-related Clubs to raise funds for animal rescue, care, rehabilitation and re-homing. She donates a portion of her proceeds and provides portrait gift certificates for special events .

April 20, 2007, was an exciting
and exhilarating day! Over 200 poker players, poker celebrities,
and noted figures in the entertainment industry gathered at Caesars
Palace in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada, to participate in a charity
event. The event, titled Jennifer Harman* Charity Poker Tournament
brought in over $125,000 which went directly to the Nevada Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (NSPCA)! That money will
be used to renovate and enhance the sanctuary and to further promote
humane education and services for the safety and rehabilitation
of rescued animals. The event included a live auction of items
donated by celebrities in the fields of sports, entertainment
and the arts. Up for bid was an electric guitar signed and donated
by one of the members of the famous band Motley Crew. Other donations
for auction came from such sport celebrities as Tiger Woods, Troy
Aikman, Roger Staubach to name but a few. All brought impressive
bids from the attendees and, an item among the highest dollar
achievers was the donation of Las Vegas local animal artist and
NSPCA supporter, Sandie Friedland. When her donation of one painting
of the winners companion animal went up for bid, the room became
animated and the bidding war began. Sandie, fortunately in attendance,
was asked to donate additional works to accommodate the highest
multiple bidders. She agreed and, in the end, not one; but three
high bidders were to be the recipient of a painting by this talented
artist! She alone brought in $4,500 for the NSPCA! If you want
