Hello, I'm a collector of Chris Bachalo's art, and have commissioned numerous pieces from him. It was thru those interactions that I can truly say that he has been the most courteous, professional, and straight-up honest artist that I've ever dealt with. So when he started a GoFundMe campaign (https://ca.gofundme.com/helen-bachalo-charity-drive) to honor his wife's recent passing, it was a no-brainer that I wanted to contribute. I see that the GoFundMe has stalled a bit here, so I have decided to donate the complete proceeds from the sale of these pieces from my collection to try and help Chris reach his mark. Please have a look and maybe there is one that catches your eye and you'd like to make an offer. Thanks in advance.

SOLD and Closed. Thanks to all those who bid and congratulations to the new owners.

Here are a few sketches I picked up at last month's RoseCityComicCon. First up, this 11x14 piece by Pete Woods. Not only is Pete of the highest integrity, but his wife Rebecca is a ray of sunshine to talk to. This Steampunk Harley is for you 'Evil Cody'! Second, these two (12x15) pieces from the talented Steve Rude 'the Dude'. Steve was so friendly, taking time to get to know his fans a bit, giving drawing tips, as well as sharing interesting conversations that he's had with legendary artists and creators. And it was so nice to meet and talk with his wife, Jaynelle (the hardest working other-half that I've ever met)! Not only is Steve an amazing comic artist, but he also loves doing fine art. I couldn't decide on what I wanted, so I just told him to draw whatever he felt like. It was really cool to see him just whip this charcoal piece off the top of his head. He finished the piece on Saturday, but I didn't get a chance to pick it up until Sunday morning. Ever the perfectionist, just as he was handing it to me, he pulls it back because he noticed that he could improve it even more. He then proceeded to add more shading and the flower in her hair (a nice touch!). I was so pleased with the first piece that I had to get a comic character from him. So for my second piece, I asked for a Gwen Stacy. When Steve does his fine art pieces at his studio, it's common for him to bring in live models. I asked Steve for a particular pose and to my surprise, he flagged down a more than willing participant. John Flesk of Flesk Publications couldn't resist capturing Steve at work.

Fantastic seller to deal with. Very responsive communication, fast proactive updates, and fast and secure shipping. I would buy from him again without question.
