All proceeds will be donated to our three favourite charities , UNICEF, HABITAT FOR HUMANITY, SAVE THE CHILDREN and others, (we will update when we finalize the research). Here's what we are going to have on auction at this show.. sketches, paintings, prints, original comic pages, animation art, sculptures, memorabillia, and more.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN DONATING ART OR TIME PLEASE LET US KNOW ASAP! Either call the studio: (415) 522 1717 or email GENNIE, SHO or DEREK. Please note that because of the short turn-around time for this show, all framed art donations must be submitted to Maverix Studios by TUESDAY FEBRUARY 1ST. Any unframed pieces should be submitted or dropped off as soon as you can, so that the Maverix Crew can get frames if needed.

For those of you who like the idea of what we are doing here but can't attend in person, you may want to go to the ONLINE AUCTION that is being run by the DRAWING BOARD guys. (Additionally, any art WE cant sell on FEB 4th will be up for grabs on EBAY too, so stay posted)

Ok, that's all the important info, dates and begging/cajolling stuff dealt with... Now lets be checking out some tasty samples from the smorgasbord o' gomer delights on offer... Here is a list of artists who are donating, and some samples of JUST A FEW of the pieces on auction. (Click thumbnails for closer view, and don't forget to SCROLL DOWN. Some art updates happen at the bottom of the page...)

FEB 3 ARTIST UPDATES: Ronnie del Carmen, Jenn Farrington, Aaron McBride, Bill Cone, Anthony Hon.

Well peoples, Maverix Studios is steadily filling up with artwork, and it is being matted, framed and hung about the place. We've been doing our best to give you a preview of what's on offer here on this page, but there is so much of it coming in now that it is hard to stay on top of the updates (It may even be a challenge to find space to hang it all). At last count we had over 160 pieces of artwork donated. We only have about 90 pieces posted on this page so far. We can now officially declare a success for PHASE ONE: ASSEMBLING the SWAG!

Now on to PHASE TWO: the BIDDING WAR! If we have as much support from art-buyers as we've had from art-makers, then we should raise quite a bit of money! So spread the word, and drag all your art-lover friends along, be they lovers of the high-brow or the low-brow, the high-price or the low-price. We have something for everyone.

There have been updates all up and down the page so take your time and CHECK them out. Speaking of checks, don't forget to bring your CHECKbook on Friday. See you there!
