Topic: Comic Book Artists
![]() Harold saw my earlier posts about both artists that I blogged about who also submitted sketch cards for the same worthy cause! Harold and I have been Facebook Friends for a while, but I had missed his entries earlier, as there are One Thousand listings for bidders to choose from. That is a Great turnout from the comics industry! Thus Harold now joins my earlier blog posts on this Auction Event with his set of four cards based on his 'Pugnuggle Tales' which you can see by Clicking Here! So that would make three artists that I have blogged about that have contributed to this cause... Harold Cupec with his four cards, Daniel Miki's two set of collage sketch cards and Greg Harms set of four 'Twilight' sketch cards! Here are the details for the benefit from the 'Comics For Cures' web site as this blog post is published: Blue Line Art has been organizing their second annual exhibition and auction of original sketch card art to benefit the American Cancer Society. Their first event in March of 2008 showcased 200 artist with over 1200 sketch cards. They raised over $7,400 for the American Cancer Society and are hoping that this current event will be bigger and better in raising funds. There will be a public exhibition at Comics 2 Games, Florence, Ky location on April 4th 2009. The auction of all the original art cards will go online starting the week before the Sketch Card exhibition and will end that evening. All proceeds from the sale of the cards will go to the American Cancer Society. Bob and Mike Hickey, founders and owners of Blue Line Art, are organizing this fundraiser in honor of Bob’s wife Katie, a breast cancer survivor. Blue Line publishes Sketch Magazine and Graphic Novel Scene and sells Blue Line Art boards to both comic book companies and individual artists. The Hickey family has long been aware of the generosity of the comic book community. All involved are looking forward to another successful event that celebrates the diversity of comic book artists’ unique talents and their heroic spirit of helping those in need!
