After his mother's fourth round with breast cancer found its way to her bones and lungs, T.J. decided to wage his own war on cancer the only way he knew how - by raising funds. He donated his unwavering artistic eyes, and all of the actors, musicians, and celebrities donated their time to this title created strictly to raise funds for breast cancer research.

She's an illustrator, model, tattoo artist, and citizen of the world, with an Instagram following of a couple hundred thousand.

Well I have decided to do a book to raise $2,000,000 to fight cancer. I have my work cut out but this is only 20,000 book sales, I just need less than 1% of Australia's population to buy a book. I'm very happy to have OPA! Magazine with Dean Georgio and Steve Agi involved with this project. Cancer is a disease that has no discrimination to age, gender, race or religion. Everyone I have spoken to can name at least 5 people close to them who have battled with cancer, It is estimated more than 45,000 people will died from cancer in 2011/12 - Peter Coulson"
