One of the loveliest things I saw this weekend was this original Catwoman illustration by Jillian Tamaki, on display at The Doug Wright Awards Booth at TCAF. This illustration is part of a fundraising auction for the DWAs, which features a number of excellent Canadian Cartoonists donating the proceeds of the sale of their work to keep the awards going. You can find all of the auctions at http://tinyurl.com/27fmlnm.
Also to the right here is Kate Beaton’s contribution, the original artwork to her cranky Wonder Woman strip which I love. The other fantastic contributions to the auction include Chester Brown’s Batman, Joe Ollman’s The Spectre, Matt Forsythe’s Hawkman, Bryan Lee O’Malley with a spread from Scott Pilgrim, Marc Bell’s Iron Man, Jeff Lemire’s Hawkman and The Atom, Lynn Johnston with a For Better or For Worse strip, John Martz’ Bizarro, Diana Tamblyn’s Black Canary, Michael Cho’s Superboy, and Seth’s Dr. Fate.
I probably should’ve mentioned these auctions earlier, but I was a bit busy. At any rate, the first of the auctions ends in less than 24 hours! So get over there and bid on some gorrrrrrrrrrrgeous artwork. That link again? http://tinyurl.com/27fmlnm.
