Hey gang!
As part of last year’s Thought Bubble convention, we ran our regular Sketching Spotlight event, where some amazing comic artists came up on stage and discussed their approach to illustrating with Peter Doherty, while also sketching live for our excellent audience.
Because comic artists are the best people on the planet, they agreed to let us auction off the sketches they produced, and donate all the proceeds to The Barnardo’s Charity.
We’d like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to all those wonderful people who took part, both for their time and generosity, and (with your help) we hope to be able to raise a lot of money for a great cause.
You can see a preview of all the pieces below (click to embiggen), with full details of the sketches underneath, as well as a link to the individual items’ listing pages.
For archival videos from a selection of previous years’ Sketching Spotlights, please visit our YouTube channel.
The auction will take place on eBay and will run for 10 days from 12pm (GMT) on Monday 29th January, with bidding/delivery open to fans worldwide. We’d really appreciate it if as many as you could spread the word as possible, so we can raise a whole bunch of money for a good cause, and find some new homes for some awesome artwork!
(100% of proceeds from each auction (excluding P&P) will be donated to the Barnardo’s charity all artwork is A4 in size, full information available on individual item listing pages linked below, which will be live from 12pm (GMT) – Monday 29th January, or can be viewed at http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/thoughtbubblefestival – worldwide shipping is available, with full P&P details available on individual items’ listing pages.)
