Can anyone tell me if the family was ever able to have the sculpture of andrea finshed and set to her marker? The last date i've seen it mentioned was in 2009 and she still did not have it. Was it scrapped? Is money still owed on it? The reason I am asking is I would like to try to obtain those funds for Lucie if they are still needed. As an artist I am appauled that the sculptur did not do this work free of charge, obviously supplies must be paid but Andrea was an olympic athlete, a czech representative to the world, certain priviledges come with that, one of which is people giving up some time and income to help you out that shouldnt' die with the athlete just because they no longer entertain us. What I would like to do is petition members of the art world to donate as many peices as possible and try to have those peices autographed by players in the adult world. The can then be auctioned to fans and the money donated. Thus far I have agreements with retail values far exceeding that which was needed, if the agents agree I will look for autograph worthy individuals to sign and put some immediate value to the artwork then target the fans. The good news is I"ve already needed to start a waitlist of fans wanting to purchase not even knowing who may sign them, just knowing it is to benefit andrea is enough for them. If the sculpture is complete I won't pursue this unless someone can give me another worthy cause associated with andrea. Whether legit or not, those of you who read my other post know that andreas existance saved my life as that dream prior to coming out of coma got me through the pain and wanting to die. Whether it was my subconcious or andrea really visited me just when we were both about to die it was her face that kept me alive, I want her to be remembered.
