The Kidney Foundation of Canada's annual A Brush of Hope charity auction fundraiser kicked off earlier today and Alex Lifeson is once again one of the many Canadian celebrities participating by donating their original paintings. Alex's contribution this year is a 10"x14"x1.5" acrylic painting titled Minus 20, which is now available for bidding on the eBay.ca website at this location (thanks RushFanForever). Alex has participated in the auction nearly every year since 2006, including last year with his painting Self Portrait #2 which ended up selling for over $12K CAD! The Brush of Hope online charity auction will run through Wednesday, October 30th at Noon. For all the latest news and information be sure to follow A Brush of Hope on Facebook.
