Art that gives back.

Hi, I'm Lorelai. I paint and draw original pieces, sell them here, and donate a share of every sale to causes I care about — so every picture on this page does two good things at once: it brightens someone's wall, and it helps somebody out.

the simple idea

How Art 4 Charity works

Three steps, no fine print. Pick a piece, and half the money goes straight to a good cause.

1

Pick a piece (or commission one)

Browse the gallery for an original painting or drawing, or ask Lorelai to make something just for you.

2

Choose where the good goes

Every piece is tagged with a cause — animal shelters, kids' hospitals, food banks, ocean cleanup. Your purchase supports the one on its tag.

3

Half is donated, always

50% of the price goes to the cause. The rest covers art supplies and Lorelai's time — and every donation gets posted so you can see it happened.

no mystery math

Where the money goes

Drag the slider to a price and see exactly how a sale splits up. Every piece in the gallery follows the same 50 / 20 / 30 rule.

$40

A $40 piece sends $20.00 to a local animal shelter.

  • Donated to the cause — 50% $20.00
  • Paint, paper & shipping — 20% $8.00
  • To the artist — 30% $12.00

Every donation is posted here once it's made, so you can see exactly where the money went.

About Lorelai

Lorelai is a teenage artist who works in watercolor, gouache, acrylic, and whatever markers are closest to hand. She started Art 4 Charity because selling art felt good — but selling art that also feeds shelter cats, stocks food bank shelves, and cleans up beaches felt even better.

When she isn't painting, she's probably sketching anyway. Every piece here is drawn and painted by her, signed on the back, and shipped with a note about where its donation went.
