I must apologize again for the poor quality of these photos, but I was in a bit of a rush taking them with my camera and fumbling with the settings before heading out of the house Wednesday morning. I was taking these two framed drawings to the Silent Auction at my workplace before 9am. The money from the proceeds are to go to a charity organization in Calgary that looks after the homeless. These two colored pencil drawings are the second set of drawings that I decided to donate to the auction as oppose to the first set that I posted earlier in my blog. I also decided to change things a little from the first set, to the second set, which I think makes them look much better overall. Wednesday at the auction, the bid on these two did quite well. I was not expecting them to go as high as I thought they would for small drawings such as these. They are only 5"x7" each inside the matting and they went to the final bidder at $80.00 for the pair. I suppose they could have raised more money if they had separate bids placed on them, but my intention was to keep them together as a pair. The most important thing in the end is that the money went to a very good cause. That's what really matters.
