Four-year-old Chrysta Victoria’s artistic talents have been put to a good cause, with her artwork being auctioned to raise money for charity.

Her mother Jo decided to try and focus Chrysta Victoria’s energy on being creative during lockdown as she struggled with missing her grandparents and other family members.

“Keeping creative, we forgot the world around us, and our time together was nothing short of blissful,” Jo said.

“We also focused on gratitude and learned how some children do not own a paintbrush, paint, or even paper.

“With a kind smile, Chrysta asked if we can help these children, so we agreed to sell her art pieces and donate all proceeds to ‘Paradise 4 Kids’ where we know every cent goes towards helping those less fortunate and in need.”

An online auction was held with Chrysta Victoria, who lives in Brimbank, selling all seven pieces of her work and raising $185 in the process.

The winning bids will also receive a video of Chrysta Victoria completing the piece they have purchased.
