Los Altos painter Marilyn Bourbon has been selected from more than 10,000 artists worldwide as one of the launching artists for the new online gallery artforallofus.com. The gallery, which features signed limited-edition prints, went online in September.

“Being selected as one of the inaugural artists is a testimony to Marilyn Bourbon’s amazing talent,” said Pamela Ward, director of marketing for Art for All of Us. “She incorporates all the design principles in her watercolor media.”

Bourbon said her art is an expression of her inner self. “My work comes from inside to outside.”

In addition to online sales, Art for All of Us supports international not-for-profit social and environmental organizations. For more information, call (707) 540-9797 or e-mail pam@artforallofus.com.
