Zamage Digital Art Imaging Inc. (Zamage) www.zamage.com, (Pink
Sheets:ZMGD) a leading publisher of fine-art and photography is
teaming up with renowned fashion designer Jhane Barnes
www.jhanebarnes.com to raise at least one million dollars for
Katrina Victim Relief. Zamage intends to raise these funds through
the sale of fine art giclee prints of six original works of art
created and generously donated by Jhane Barnes. Ms. Barnes'
artworks are highly sought after by individuals and companies
around the world and Zamage Digital Art Imaging Inc. is combining
its expertise in art publishing with her exquisite and innovative
art. Zamage will offer museum-grade, fine-art giclee prints of
artwork created by Ms. Barnes. This will be the first time these
rare images will be published and offered to the public. Especially
selected by Ms. Barnes, these bold and powerful artworks evoke
feelings of hope and empowerment. One hundred per cent of the net
proceeds will be given to the humanitarian aid agencies working in
the area. According to Paul Stawinski, President of Zamage, who
with his wife personally took a truckload of supplies to Gulf Port,
Mississippi, in aid of Katrina's victims, "I felt I had to do
something to directly help those people, so we loaded up a truck
and took down all the supplies we could. You have no idea what it
was like to see such devastation, and to give water and supplies to
people who would break down crying just because you gave them a
bottle of water. There but for the grace of God go I ..." "We have
mobilized our network of strategic partners to assist us in this
cause. Our objective is to raise a minimum of one million dollars
for the humanitarian aid groups who are attempting to provide
relief to the victims of this disaster. We are proud of this
affiliation with Jhane Barnes to provide aid for the victims and
are confident that we can make a difference," says Stewart Irvine,
CEO of Zamage. "To me, this is the ideal way by which I can give my
support to the rescue and reconstruction efforts in the region torn
apart by Hurricane Katrina. I hope that the Katrina Relief Art
Project will truly make a difference," says Ms. Barnes. About
