R U drawn to life?

His work is raw, meticulous, awe-inspiring. His tools are made not of iron or steel, but flesh and bone. He's a local phenom known nationwide for his gritty, in-your-face portraits of some of today's most gifted athletes, including Hines Ward, Terrell Owens, Smokin' Joe Frazier, Mel Blount, Jerome Bettis and Brad Boyes. Just to name a few.

He's celebrity sports artist Kevin-John Jobczynski—whose devotion to his craft is equaled only by his passion for those around him. And now he's giving back to a community that's already given him the world.

In support of the Community Blood Bank, Kevin-John will create a custom 30" x 40" graphite work of art for one donor chosen at random. It's a coveted prize package worth $20,000.

You can match his selfless donation with one of your very own. Simply donate blood now through December 31, and you'll be automatically entered to win.

For years, Kevin-John has been drawn to sports. Now, more than ever, he's drawn to life. To see his work, visit Kevin-John.com anytime. To become part of it, donate blood today.

To find out more, call 456-4206 or stop by the Community Blood Bank at 646 Peach Street. Hours of operation are Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.; Tuesday 9:00 a.m. - 7:30 p.m.; and Saturday 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
