City artists donate work for auction

An auction taking place in aid of children's charity ChildLine features artwork donated by some of Edinburgh's top artists.

Deborah Cameron, Damian Callan, Emily Hogarth and Mark Nicholas Edward are among the 11 artists who are due to auction their work.

The auction takes place from 6.30-8.30pm on March 10 at the Drill Hall, Dalmeny Street.

Artwork can be viewed from Monday, March 7, when people are invited to make a silent bid ahead of the auction.

Several of the artists will also be there on the night to talk about their work.

Deborah Cameron, who is donating a piece called Seagull Beach, Isle of Harris, said: "I was delighted to be asked to donate a piece of my artwork. Hopefully it will help raise funds for this service which does such important work."
