After weeks of wrestling with the unhelpful tech wizards at eBay, the Cartoon Art Museum has kicked off its big summer tribute to the Rocketeer by Dave Stevens with an art auction. You may recall that I inked and watercolored a large (12 x 36 inches!) drawing to raise funds for CAM and the Hairy Cell Leukemia Foundation, which researches the disease that killed Stevens.
CAM is auctioning off a few pieces per week and I've been told that mine will go under the hammer (that's auction talk!) in late August. Obviously they're saving the best for last. Meanwhile, look at the work being auctioned now and in coming weeks, including some by famous syndicated and comic book cartoonists. Other events will include art exhibitions and guest speakers.
I'll be sure to let everyone know when mine comes around. Just try to shut me up.
This is mine. Ink and watercolor on watercolor paper, 12 x 36 inches (30 x 91 cm). |
Excellent art! The dimensions of the piece would make a cool bookmark.
ReplyDeleteBilly, the proportions are right for it to be a bookmark. However, at full size--1 by 3 feet--you'd need a pretty big book!
