Girls, Guys & Giving will be held on Monday, February 4 at the Indian Wells Country Club. The event starts at 4 pm. A live auction will feature a painting of Marilyn Monroe by Autumn Martino.

Martino said she loves featuring bright colors in her work that pop. This particular painting has a Swarovski crystal attached to Monroe’s eye.

Another one of Martino’s Marilyn Monroe paintings will up for auction at a Riverside event for the hospital. All of the funds from the events will go straight back to Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital.
