A one-of-kind painted Porsche hood is being raffled off to support CUPS Calgary. It'll be the centrepiece at Rita Thorpe and Michele Doucette's art show in May.
Calgary artists Rita Thorpe and Michele Doucette have used a Porche hood to create art for a good cause.
“The marketing team at Porsche asked us, ‘Have you ever thought about painting on a Porsche hood?'” Doucette said, who started painting about five years ago. The non-profit caught the eye of Doucette after attending a gala for CUPS, and visiting the centre to paint with the clients there. “This was an opportunity for our women at the center to express themselves and discover new things about themselves through art,” she said.
