Oh No! I created an original piece for sale
My super-creative pal, Dan Santat, along with hilarious author, Mac Barnett, have organized an auction to benefit 826LA. 826LA is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting students ages 6 to 18 with their creative and expository writing skills, and to helping teachers inspire their students to write.
Dan and Mac asked a bunch of illustrators to re-imagine a scene from their totally awesome new picture book, OH NO! which came out this summer. Of course, I was honored and thrilled to participate and be in such winning company. Below is my initial sketch:
They are exhibiting the originals at the Nucleus Gallery (from August 14-17th) before they place the originals for auction on eBay. Winning bidders will receive the original art piece along with an official police report filled out by the artist, a copy of OH NO! signed by Mac Barnett and Dan Santat, and an exclusive limited edition print.
Here are the details:
AUG 14 – 17
NUCLEUS GALLERY. Open public viewing. Books will be signed, and limited prints from the book will be sold.
AUG 23 – 27
FIRST EBAY ONLINE AUCTION
AUG 30 – SEPT 3
SECOND EBAY ONLINE AUCTION
…I am not sure which auction my piece will be in, but once I hear, I’ll post it. Thanks for your support and good luck bidding!






Sweet! Wonderful artwork… I can’t wait for Wondla to come out and I hope it has more designs like this!!
