Painting for sale - helping children fundraise!


Recommended Posts

My 3 children have completed a work of art to sell in order to save up for a trip out of London this summer.


We are a single parent family and so affording holidays is not an option so my children have taken creative initiative to raise the money themselves!


So I am listing their painting here and am open to offers!


It?s a really beautiful and large piece painting created using professional acrylic paint on board.


Happy to answer any questions


Collection is from Dulwich Village

Hi there - may I say a big congrats to your children and you for taking the initiative to use your talents in this way. Coming from a single parent family I recall a few mini caravan breaks... usually in the rain! Could you post a photo of the artwork (if dry) in an upright position to appreciate it. Wonder if there is a bidding app / way of setting this up to receive bids then the ball could get rolling. Is it mentioned on the family section too? Bid of ?15 to get things started...

Hi Maria,


Thank you! Yes i?m So proud of them and the painting looks great! Do you have an email I could send the painting too?


I think in this day and age it?s the best you can do when times are hard to give your children the gift of appreciating the pleasure in taking control of your destiny! That way they can have the satisfaction of knowing they thought of a solution, put in the work and achieved something!


I guess a bidding thing would be great but not sure how to go about arranging that! Any ideas??

    • I would leave London, or at a push move back to north London. In SE London if you want to get away in a car you are trapped, always an hour to go the first 10 miles, chugging up to the M4 or round the south circular, which is really just a line someone drew connecting a load of roads. and I know there are trains but first you have to get to those mainline stations, unless you only want to leave London to go to Kent. which I don't. 
    • It was you who  made it personal in the first place,  Jazzer. You said you didn't feel safe in the streets,  and you said you didn't go to Central London because you didn't feel safe there. So are you now saying that wasn't "personal"? "Fire from the hip." Another interesting choice of words 🙄 I'm not "demanding" anything! I asked you some perfectly reasonable questions in  response to your own statements. None of which you have answered. Never mind. It seems to be pointless having a discussion with you. It's long past my bedtime. I'm going to turn on my sleep app  and go to sleep 😴💤
    • Hi Forumites, This afternoon someone in a dark blue/black saloon car collided with my parked car on Thompson Road, SE22 9JR. I have a neighbour’s doorbell cam footage of the collision at 14:30 19/09/2025 but am unable to identify the registration plate. If anyone has footage of a car travelling down Thompson Road towards Crystal Palace Road at that time please PM me. Of course if the Perp would like to confess they can also PM me. Thankyou.
