Charity By Numbers is one of the best ideas for an art exhibition I have seen in a long time. You may remember the great craft product from your childhood called paint by numbers. If not, paint by numbers is a simple yet great idea for budding artists of any ability. (Read the Wiki Paint by numbers entry for more info).

Charity By Numbers which was held at Corey Helford Gallery and features a very strong line up from the modern underground art scene such as Mark Ryden, Joe Ledbetter, Tim Biskup, Shepard Fairey and many more. Each artist was given a paint by numbers piece which then had to customise to create a new piece of art. The results are absolutely amazing and I hope that this is not the last Charity By Numbers.Each piece is going to be auctioned on eBay with proceeds going to The Alliance For Children’s Rights.
