Yesterday those three pieces of art I auctioned to benefit the Haitian earthquake victims sold for a combined $163. Not a vast sum, but not too bad for a couple of drawings that were doing nothing but taking up space in my office. My thanks to those people who bid on them. The money will go to Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders).
It has been several years since I've sold my artwork on ebay. More than a decade ago, I used to sell my old color guides , but stopped when there was a glut. Maybe it is time to revisit the idea. I know that some artists draw images specifically to sell on ebay, or solicit commissions there. Anybody out there have any experience with that? Maybe it would be worthwhile to offer sketch commissions right here off my blog.
Something to consider...

Heroes 4 Haiti: Art Auctions
In a small effort to help the victims of the disastrous Haitian earthquake, I've been inspired by the grassroots movement Heroes 4 Haiti to place some of my original comic book art up for auction on ebay. Right now, I have 3 pieces up on short 3-day auctions ending this Sunday. If you're interested in original comic art, this is a great way to do your part for a worthy cause and come away with a cool & collectible keepsake. 100% of the auction profits go to benefit Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders).
If these 3 pages sell, I may add some more next week. Please take a look and spread the word.
Here's the first piece. You may recognize it as the line art for the "Happy New Year" image I posted the other day...
It's basically Catwoman "fan art," created by me for self-promotional purposes. You can see it in color here if you're interested. CLICK HERE to view and bid on the item on ebay.
The second and third pieces are pages from my 2007 manga Battle of the Bands, published by Tokyopop. This is one of the title pages (from Chapter Nine)...

This is story page 177. The sexy nurse offering a sponge bath and "Doctors Without Borders" are a natural pair-up, don't you think? ;)

I will autograph these for the auction winners, BTW. Thanks for your support!
