Of Comicons and Cancer Benefits...

Hey there, my faithful art fans. Time to once again give you all the latest scoop on the happening around the Sequential Treasures home base.

First of all, I'd like to thank all of those who came out to see us at the Jet City Comic Show last Saturday. I'd like to, really, but folks would have had to show up for me to do that. This was probably just about the worst attended show I've ever seen. There were more vendors and artists walking the floor than fans. Needless to say Sequential Treasures will NOT be making an return engagement there. Maybe the show's creators should make sure people actually will show up to the event, before they host it.

Be that as it may, it still hasn't slowed down our own plans. As since October is soon upon us, so is another event that has become a mainstay for us: The Marla Bea Breast Cancer Benefit. For those of you not familiar, a friend of mine start up this benefit a couple years ago, to help raise money to fight breast cancer. He uses donated original pieces of art, from many generous artists, and auctions them off with all the proceeds going to a research center in Iowa that is working for a cure to breast cancer. He does it in October, as that is also breast cancer awareness month.

Those of us who are a part of Sequential Treasures have always helped out in years past and this year in no different. Several of our artists have donated an original piece for the cause. Here's a list of this year's pieces:

• Arcee (from the Transformers) by artist Ben Hansen



• Dagger by Mike Vosburg



• Poison Ivy by Randy "Rantz" Kintz



• Spider-Woman by Matt Haley

You can see all of the art pieces our artists listed above donated on our Facebook page. You can learn more about the benefit, as well as all the other artists who are donating to this worthy cause at their website. The auctions will be starting on October 12th and can be found at this eBay account. Please, do your part and help to support a very worthwhile benefit.

Well, that's all for now. But there is more coming down the pipeline, as we swing into the final months of 2011. Make sure to stay tuned here, as these things develop. Until next time, peace out!

See Mick Gray in San Jose... this Saturday!

Hey, everyone! You blogmaster is back to give you the scoop on some happenings at Sequential Treasures H.Q., because you know we just keep things rolling around here.

First off, we have another appearance by one of out illustrious creators. This Saturday, Mick Gray will be at the San Jose Comics Festival. It a small event that is held in the area a few times a year. This one is the last one they will be holding this year. It also will be Mick's last appearance for the year, too. He'll' be there all day doing sketches, selling some of his originals, and talking comics (including some details on some upcoming projects that I'll be mentioning here shortly). You can get more info on this show at their website.

Then, we have the news of some art donated by our own Randy Kintz to help benefit the Inkwell Awards. This award is to help recognize the contributions and skills of comic inkers, who often get overlooked. Randy has donated a sketch cover piece, featuring the merc-with-a-mouth, Deadpool. It's on a sketch cover edition to the Marvels Project #1 and is being auctioned on eBay right now. Make sure to place a bid and help out a very worthy cause.

Well, that's all for now. But I'll be back soon, as I'm expecting some new art to show up any day now, which will be one of the last (if not THE last) art updates from us for the rest of the year, so you surely don't want to miss that. Until then, peace out!

A "Pound-ing" new art update from Richard Moore!

Hey there, art lovers! Well, I said yesterday that I'd have a new art update for you today, so let us get with it, shall we?

This time out, we get a nice batch from our resident superstar, Richard Moore. In this update, you are getting the complete 22 pages from his one-shot of "The Pound!" It's all out action with Kat and Caleb. The awesomely stylish renderings you have come to expect from Richard are in full effect here (as shown in the page above). The prices are reasonable, as usual, as well. So, get yourself on over to the art gallery and check things out. Then, place your orders fast, because the last few updates of Richard's art have been flying out almost as fast as we can list them. Don't miss out!

Also, just wanted to remind you that we still are in the middle of the Randy Kintz 50% off sale, as well as the fact that the art auctions for the Marla Bea Benefit to help fight breast cancer end today. In fact, they are starting to close right now. Many of the pieces are still at or near the starting bit, so you can get some art at a great price and help a very worthy cause. Just head on over to the auctions.

Well, that's it for now, but I'm sure I'll be back with more stuff for you all soon, as the hectic times of October continue one here at Sequential Treasures HQ. Until next time, peace out!

Hitting The Shelves: Brightest Day #12

Hi-ho, all! Time to, once again, drop some info on some new comic book goodness due out this week, which features some of the artistic skills of Sequential Treasures roster of talent.

Coming out at all comic shops everywhere this Wednesday is Brightest Day #12, the latest chapter in the big event going on at DC. As those of you who've been following it know, these books are usually worked on by multiple artists. Well, our own Mick Gray got to ink a few pages in this issue, over the pencils of Patrick Gleason, on the Martian Manhunter part of the tale. According to Mick, it features a somewhat intimate moment between J'Onn and the female green martian. Just make sure to be looking for the cover shown here, when you pick up your weekly batch of comics this week. You'll thank me later.

Also, I have a couple other tidbits for you. First off, is to give a reminder to you that the Marla Bea Benefit comic art auctions, to help raise funds to fight breast cancer, ends tomorrow. Several of our artists did their part in creating an original sketch.pin up piece for the auction, so make sure to do yours and bid on them. Many of the pieces are still at their starting bid prices, so you can get some great art, for a great price, and help out a great cause. You can see the auctions right here.

Then, we have our second reminder about the 50% off sale on all Randy Kintz's current stock. We're over the halfway mark on the sale and there's still a lot of great art available. So, don't delay in placing your orders. Head over to our art gallery and check out all we still have in stock! Do it now, because you won't have another chance of a deal like this for quite some time!

That's about all for now. Tomorrow, I'll have a brand new update of art for you all! I hope you'll all come back for that, as the busy fall season just keeps on rolling around here. Until then, peace out!

Please help us support a very worthy cause!

Hello, everyone. I promised you yesterday I had some very special and important news for you all.

As we all know, October is the month for scares and horror, but it isn't just those we get from Halloween ghosts and goblins. There's also the real horror of deadly diseases, like breast cancer, which is why October is also breast cancer awareness month. This disease will touch millions of lives this year and that is why Sequential Treasures and her artistic roster want to try and help.

To that effect, we are working with The Marla Bea Benefit. This annual event reaches out to the comic book creative community and asks them to donate original pieces of art, in the hope of finding a cure. All artists involved create an original sketch/pin up of a strong female character from comics and add in the pink breast cancer awareness ribbon or the the color pink. We help out last with this event and we are doing so again this year. All the donated art are now being auctioned off on eBay. Our own Mick Gray, Randy Kintz, and Ben Hansen have generously donated an original piece for the cause. Last year they raised over $4,200.00 for the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. We'd like to see that record broken this year and that's where you come in.

By bidding on these pieces, you are helping to generate funds to help find a cure for this terrible disease. All proceeds from the auctions go to the Holden Center, so please bid high and bid often. With your help we can help make a difference in the lives of women and their families everywhere. This is certainly a most worthy cause to fight for!

If you would like to see the pieces donated by our artists, please go to our Facebook forum and you may view them there. Until next time, peace out and thank you!

Please help an artist in need!

Hey everyone! I know I promised you a report on the Emerald City ComiCon and it is coming. But before I do that, there's something else you need to know about which is of much greater importance.

Artist Pat Carlucci, whom some of you may know either by name or artistic reputation, is very sick right now. He's battling the disease of lymphoma and things don't seem too good right now. Some of Sequential Treasures artists are good friends with Pat and are doing what they can to raise money for the medical costs of his valiant struggle to beat the illness.

So, please, check out the eBay auctions that are currently up from 5Finity Productions. They feature original pin-ups and sketch cards by not only Pat, but from several other artists, including our own Ben Hansen and Randy Kintz (one of Randy's donations is shown here). We at Sequential Treasures would as you to please help, by bidding on these items. If you've ever had a good friend or loved one who has been stuck by a disease like this, you know how Pat's friends and family feel at this moment. Do whatever you can to help make the outcome of his battle one we all can celebrate.

We at Sequential Treasures thank you for your support and compassion in this matter.

Sincerely,

James Meeley

Sequential Treasures Administrator

Keeping the hussle in the Holiday bussle...

Hey, everyone! Just wanted to drop a note here, as those of us at Sequential Treasures are keeping ourselves busy with things, as we get closer to the end of the Holiday season.

First off, Randy Kintz currently has an auction up on eBay. No, he's not selling some of his own stuff, but is part of a sketch card auction from 5finity Production, featuring their 2009 Mandy card set. Here's the details on that:

This auction is for a ONE OF A KIND original sketch card from the 5Finity
Productions 2009 release of MANDY Sketch Card Series based on the Dean Yeagle
character.

MANDY is a cute blonde comic strip character created by
Dean Yeagle as a cartoon pin-up girl. MANDY has appeared in Play Boy
Magazine and is a fan favorite character.

This is part of a rare
limited release by 5Finity Productions. What this is, is part of their
TRADING CARD release of packs that randomly included an original sketch card by
various artists. Customers who purchased packs do not know what the
contents of the pack is, so it's a blind box system like most trading cards
where a random card is inserted and there's no guarantees what you'll find
inside.

This here GUARANTEES you that the card you will receive is
the one you see.
No guesswork involved here! What you see is
exactly what you get!

So make sure to get your bid in on his card (and some of the many other artists who contributed, as well), which is pictured above.

Next up, your humble blogmaster has finally taken the plunge and joined up on Facebook. I'll be using it to further extol the virtues and talent of those in Sequential Treasures stables, as well as give a little bit more of my personal slant on things, too. So, make sure to friend me, if you want to keep up even more with the happening here at ST.

Lastly, with how busy we were last month with hitting up various conventions, I totally dropped the ball and missed plugging Richard Moore's re-release of his creation of The Pound. This was originally put out back in 2000, but it has been remastered and colored this time. So, if your shop doesn't have it, bug them until they do. Or, you can just order a copy off the Antarctic Press website.

That's all for now. More to come soon. Until later, peace out!

Going "batty" at the Portland Comic Show!

Hey there, my faithful art lovers! Well, we are back from the excursion to the Portland Comic Book Show. So, here's a little rundown of how things went...

It was a nice time overall, for those of us at Sequential Treasures. Randy Kintz was kept fairly busy, selling prints and doing sketches. A couple of highlights were his doing a sketch of the Vision for a little boy and a Catwoman for a little girl. In fact, there were quite a few kids at this show, which was something I was happy to see, as I ended up giving out 40 free comics to kids at the show yesterday. It's just a small way I try to help them to foster the love of this great artform and entertainment source.

I got to meet some really great folks at the show, too, including Andrew from the Comics Bronze Age blog and an unexpected visit from my friend, and comic artist extraordinaire, Matt Haley. Then, of course, we had some folks dressed up walking around. I snapped this shot of a lady done up as the television version of Batgirl. I have to say, her costume was pretty well done, too. I also had some nice chats with folks about the finer points of original comic art, as well. I even picked up a few sketches for myself, including this little gem from Jason Metcalf and another one from Gene Ha.

If there was any downside to the show, it would have to be, once again, a lack of sales. As with Seattle the week before, it seems folks just didn't want to open their wallets for us. I really hope this trend is broken soon, because going to shows isn't free for us and we can't keep absorbing losses forever. Hopefully, with the Holidays soon upon us, folks will help us to end the year on a bright economical note.

But while the con season is over for Sequential Treasures until next year, you'll still have chances to meet some of our artists. Randy Kintz will be at the Comic Evolution shop in Puyallup, WA this Wednesday, to help promote the recent release of DRONE #1, from Red 5 Comics. So, if you are in the area, make sure to stop in and pick up a copy. Also, while at the Portland Show, Randy gave me a few new pin up pieces he's done recently, which you can see right here. They feature Batman, the JLA and the gals of the X-Men, respectively. I have to say, with all honesty, I think these pieces are some of the best stuff I've seen from Randy this year (and considering some of what he's done, that's saying something). I hope to have the original art for DRONE #1 within the next few weeks, as well as possibly some new stuff from Richard Moore and the very M.I.A. Chris Ivy. So keep a watch out for that. [Update - 11/17/09: Just thought you all should know that the Hero Initiative's latest round of "Wolverine 100 Project" auctions, including the one donated by Chris Ivy, are ending tomorrow. So, if you haven't bid on it yet, be sure to do so soon!]

Guess that will do it, for now. Make sure to keep tabs on us, as there may yet be some last minute surprises for you all, from those of us at Sequential Treasures, before the end of the year. Until then, peace out!

Get a "Slice" of Chris Ivy from the Hero Initiative!

Hey, my faithful followers. I'm back again, with some more news and info about our awesome array of talented artistic types.

If you might recall several months back, I told you about how our own Chris Ivy had landed himself as on of the many talented artists doing the "Wolverine 100 Project" with the Hero Initiative. I even gave you a special advanced screening of the the cover art he did (which is again shown right here). Well, as of last week, the organization has begun to auction off the many cover contributions, from the artists involved and which can be seen right here, on eBay. Today, Chris Ivy's has been put up on the block. You can view the auction right here.

As many of you know, the Hero Initiative is a charitable organization dedicated to helping out creators in need. Given what a rough year 2009 has been for many people, such efforts are more important than ever. So, I just wanted to bring your attention to this and would ask that you do what you can to support this very worthy cause, either by bidding on some of these awesome covers yourself, or spreading the word about them now being up for grabs. With the Holidays fast approaching, it is the season to start thinking about goodwill towards others. So, please, help out as much as you can.

That's all for now. I'll be back with more news and info soon. Until then, peace out!

Helping the cause of raising awareness!

Those of us at Sequential Treasures have always been ones to help out for a worthy cause and the MarlaBea Breast Cancer Benefit is most certainly one of those.

Started by comic art fan Jason Gavin, after his mother and sister were both diagnosed with the disease within two month of each other, he made an appeal to the comic book creative community to donate original pieces of art to help fight for the cause of a cure. Featuring strong female characters from the world of comics, with the color pink or the breast cancer awareness ribbon used in the image, the goal of this fundraiser is to help raise money for breast cancer research. All proceeds from this eBay auction fundraiser will go to the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics in Iowa City, IA.

Our own Chris Ivy and Randy Kintz (who's donation is shown above), both contributed an original piece of art for this extremely worthy event. So, please show it, what you have failed to show us here at Sequential Treasures... monetary support. The auctions have started today and will run for a week. You may view the items right here. Bid high and bid often, to help this event meet it's goal and help the thousands of women who suffer from this deadly disease each year. Thank you.

Of Benefits and Bedevilment!

Hey all! Okay, as promised, I got some more news and info for you today. So, let's get to it, shall we?

First off, some bad news, as Richard Moore will not be making it to SDCC this year. I just learned today that he had a major breakdown on his car and aside from not having the transportation to get to the show, the money he had set aside to attend, must now go to a massive car repair bill. I'm sure you are with me, in wishing the best for Richard in this and hopes that he can make the show next year.

Second, I wanted to recap a little on the March of Dimes benefit at the Comic Evolution this past weekend. Almost $2,500.00 was raised for the charity. Randy Kintz (seen hard at work at the event in the photo here) not only did several sketches for donations, but provided a nice Batman pin up to the silent art auction. You humble blogmaster dropped $60.00 in donations on sketches from some of the other artists there and even bid on a few of the items in the auction (although, I was outbid on them all). My wife did win in it, though, and ended up getting a nice page from the comic series Alias. So, all in all, it was a very worthwhile event and helped raise much needed funds for a very good cause. Thanks to all the artists and fans who came out to support it.

Lastly, I'm just dropping a final reminder about our huge "Economic Independence" sale. There are only a few days left in it, as it ends at 11:59 PM (PST) on Sunday. So, if you have been procrastinating on placing your order, you haven't got much time left. There is still a lot of great art available, so check out our art gallery and get your order in fast. This will be the only sale we hold this year, so don't miss your one chance to get in on the savings!

Well, that's all for now. I hope to have some new shipments of art from our artists very shortly, as well as some other news about some of the things I'm working on behind the scenes. Until then, peace out!

On the move and in the groove!

Hey everyone! Things have really been happening behind the scenes at Sequential Treasures of late. Got some news and info on some of the latest happenings and things yet to come.

First off, I wanted to let you all know that Randy Kintz will be doing a guest appearance (along with many other creative talents) at the Comic Evolution this Saturday. This is conjunction with C.E.'s event to help benefit the March of Dimes. Several artists will be there sketching for donations to the charity, as well as holding an original art auction at the shop (Randy donated a very nice Batman piece for it, himself). So, if you are going to be in the Puyallup, WA area this Saturday, make a note to stop by the store and check out the scene. It's all going to help a very worthwhile cause, after all. You can get all the details on this at the link provided above.

I also got a little bit of a surprise, when in saw that Exfanding Your Horizons did a piece on original comic art collecting, which linked a number of websites and dealers, including your humble blogmaster. What's more, there were even some nice words of praise for me and my efforts. A big thanks to Alex for putting out the good word on us here. It is very much appreciated and was a very welcome surprise!

Then, of course, we have our "Economic Independence" Sale going on, in which the current inventory of everything in stock from Richard Moore, Chris Ivy and Randy Kintz is all 25% off! The response so far has been... well... not what we had hoped. We are currently at about the half way mark, so you still have time to cash-in on the savings, in what might be the only sale we hold this year. You have until 11:59 PM (PST) on the 26th to get in on the discount. Stop by our art gallery and check out what is still in stock. Lots of good stuff is still available and just waiting to find a good home.

Finally, just a quick note to remind you, that if you haven't already, to please vote in our little readers poll to the left. Remember, this is your shot to let your thoughts be known. We are taking the results of this poll very seriously, so the more votes the better, to give information to provide you better quality of service. Let us know what you think.

Well, that's about it for now. I hope to have some more news regarding more appearances by our artists, as well as some new art for sale, in the near future. Until then, peace out!

Spokane Comicon Aftermath: A very mixed bag!

Hey everyone! Well, I'm back and rested up from doing the Spokane Comic Con this past Saturday. While there were some good things that happened from it, it also had its share of things that didn't work for me. So, here's my thoughts on the show...

I was set up between my guy, Randy Kintz (who is hard at work on a sketch in the picture here), and artist Jason Metcalf. The tables were smaller than I thought they would be and the space behind the tables of those of us in the artists alley section, was a bit cramped at time, since many of us had stuff we needed to keep behind the tables. In fact, the show itself was smaller than I anticipated. According to the guys who started it, this year (the third year of the show) is the biggest one they've done. Yet, for me, it was of a size that would be barely worth doing it, if I was in charge (makes me glad I wasn't at either of the first two shows, as well).

Once the doors opened, people started pouring in. I was pleasantly surprised to see as many kids as I did in attendance. I gave away almost 50 free comics to kids at the show, which was certainly one of the highlights of the show for me. It was also nice talking with some old friends who I have seen since Emerald City Comicon. I managed to get a sketch from artist Steve Lieber for myself, as well. There were folks done up in costumes for the contest held later that day (and if you'd like to see some pics of the contestants, make a comment here and I'll do up a post with some of the photos I got). I talked with some folks, and even managed to help a few get a greater appreciation of comic art and what is involved in the process of it.

However, despite that almost 600 people were reported to have come to the show, sales for me were almost non-existent. Not one piece of art was sold. If it weren't for some of the related items I brought with me (such as sketchbooks and autographed comics), I wouldn't have made a sale all day. I don't think this had anything to do with the con folks themselves, who seemed to be doing everything they could for the guests and dealers there. Something I noted (as did my wife) were all the people who mentioned this was their very first comicon experience. So, my guess is, that many of those who came, simply suffered from total sensory overload. It might have made the show more fun for them, but kind of hindered my main reason for being there.

So, while the show didn't pan out for me financially, I still had a good time and made the most of things. It was a nice little show, overall. I just didn't make out as well as I had hoped. Of course, these are just my thoughts. You can get another view of how things went, right over here.

While all of this was happening, the Josh Medors benefit auctions were ending. While I haven't got a final tally on how much was generated for the event, I do know that the pieces donated by Randy Kintz and Richard Moore brought in almost $100.00 together. I also know that, given where the prices were when I last looked in on the auctions, they must have raised several thousand dollars in all. So, good job, everyone! It is great to see this community can still pull together to help out someone in need.

As for what is in the future for all of you, well, I'm expecting another batch of art from Randy Kintz any time now. Plus, there is the Seattle ComiCard show on the 14th of this month, which I will also have a table at. With this show being more well-established and larger, I'm hoping to do better in making sales for my artists.

Of course, you can always help in that, by checking out my art gallery and making a purchase or two. Believe me, it is always appreciated. That's all for now. I'll hopefully have more news and stuff for you soon. Until later, peace out!

See Sequential Treasures at the Spokane Comicon this Saturday!

Hey, everyone! I got some exciting new for you all. If you are planning on being, or will happen to be, in the Spokane, WA area this Saturday, you need to make sure to stop by the Spokane Comicon! Not only is it the only Comicon on the eastern side of Washington state, but your humble blogmaster will be there, pumping the cause that is Sequential Treasures!

Aside from all the comic art I currently have in inventory from our artists, I also have a few "con exclusive" items, which are only available at shows like this. I'll also be handing out free comics to as many kids as I can who attend (got to help that next generation foster the love of comics, right?), too. Of course, I'm not the only reason you should go, because our own Randy "Rantz" Kintz will also be in attendance, as well. Be sure to say hello to the big lug. There are also plenty of other great guests, raffle prizes, tons and tons (quite litterally) of comics and even a costume contest, among the many other fun things to find there.

Just follow the link provided here to find out all the details. Hope to see some of you there. I'll try to provide a report to you on how the show turns out.

Also, just a last minute reminder that, along with the Spokane show, the eBay benefit auctions to help artist Josh Medors will be ending on Saturday, as well. So, for those who can't make the show, use some of the time to put some bids on all the great donated art there. It's all going for a good cause and you'll have a shot at some really cool stuff (including possibly a couple pieces donated by our artists). That's all for now. Until next time, peace out!

New art from Chris Ivy available to purchase!

Hello again, all you comic art fans out there! Well, I have a couple bits of info for you today.

First off, I just got in some great new goodies from comic inking vet extraordinaire, Chris Ivy. In this update we have some great splash pages from books like Alpha Flight, Avengers West Coast and Sovereign Seven, as well as several interior pages from Marvel Comics Presents, Avengers and 2099 Unlimited. As if all that wasn't enough, there's also a couple of very nice pencil pin-ups, featuring a couple of characters (the image here should give you a big clue as to who) that recently starred in one of the biggest money-making films of the year (so far). So, head on over to my art gallery and check out the new stuff. And, hey, if you see something you like, drop me a line.

The other piece of news I have for you all, is to remind you that tomorrow is when the eBay auction benefit for Josh Medors takes place. It will begin at 9 am (PST), as the art donations collected will be added throughout the day. Randy Kintz and Richard Moore have both donated pieces to this event. So, make sure to do your part and place some bids. You'll have a shot at getting some great art and help out a very worthy cause, to boot. All the art auctions will be found right here. So, make sure to bookmark it and head over tomorrow.

Well, that's it for now. But I'll have some more news for you sometime next week, as I have things in the works to make the summer of 2009 one to remember. Until then, peace out!

Help out a most worthy cause!

Today is going to be a little different from the norm around here, as I'm not going to be promoting any new art for sale or new comic works from Sequential Treasures stable of talent. Today, I'm going to ask you to help give your support to a very worthy cause. The cause is the upcoming Josh Medors Benefit Auction! And to give you the lowdown, the man who is heading up the project, Dave Kopecki:

This is a call to action!

As many of you know already, artist Josh Medors (Frazetta's Swamp Demon
& Sorcerer, Willow Creek, 30 Days of Night) has been fighting a losing
battle against a terminal form of cancer for over a year, and it has recently
taken a turn for the worst. The doctors and conventional medicine have all but
given up on him and say there isn't anything else they can do. But he has found
an alternative treatment that has the possibility of extending his life a bit
and can help improve the quality of his life near the end so he can spend it
with his wife and son. There is even a slim chance it can make him somewhat
better, so he has to try. But of course the treatment is very expensive and Josh
has no medical insurance.

So myself and my brother, Andrew Mangum (currently Josh's inker on
Frazetta's Sorcerer) decided to arrange another benefit auction like the one
theydid at Emerald City Con back in '08. This auction is different though
because the last one was organized by Jay Fotos to help Josh pay his rising
medical bills to fight the cancer, and this one is specifically to get the
treatment he needs to be keep him around. I know there are a lot of fans and
friends out there that want to help, so this auction series will be that
opportunity. A wide variety of artists are contributing personal works and art
from their collections just like last time, but this time it's open to
collectors, fans, and everyone else. as well anyone can donate if they want to
help! We just ask that it be comic or comic art related.

I have set up a special "preview gallery" for all the items as they come in
on my Comic Art Fans webpage.

As one who is attempting to make a living off of artists and their work, it is very imporant to me to help out with things of this nature. To give back a little something, for all that comics and their creators have given to us. Both Randy Kintz and Richard Moore have graciously donated a piece of their own art. I hope that all of you out there will help, with either donations of your own or bidding on the auctions when they go live on May 23rd. Be sure to contact Dave for a link to where the auctions will be found.

Those wishing to donate something, can contact Dave at madman1138@yahoo.com or through his CAF gallery. Any donation must be received by May 22nd, to be included in the auction. Also, if you wish to make a monetary donation, instead of an art one, you can send Josh the money directly to his PayPal account address here: jmedors3@columbus.rr.com

This is a very important cause and I hope all of you out there can help give it, and Josh, all the support you can. Together we can hopefully make a difference!
