West Vancouver artist Peter Jurik has created a new series of figure skaters, including 2010 women's Olympic bronze medallist Joannie Rochette.

A portion of sales from Rochette's prints will benefit iheartmom at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. Rochette got involved in the campaign following her mother's death from a heart attack four days before she won her medal. Those who purchase prints will be eligible to win a framed autographed print by Rochette by detailing how the athlete inspired him or her.

Jurik Designs Inc. is also offering works to figure skating clubs for use at their discretion, depending on the needs of each -- prizes, gifts, display or fundraisers -- at reduced rates for larger orders, and clubs can earn free prints.

The club that makes the best use of the prints will also win a Rochette autographed print. For more information, visit www.peterjurik.com.
