Fazzino
Original Sketch Auction to Benefit the Muscular Dystrophy
Association
On the heels of the annual Jerry Lewis Labor
Day Telethon, we wanted to keep the fundraising efforts
going for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. So, we asked
Charles to give us one of his sketches from the sketchbook
he travels with to auction off. We’ve posted drawings
from the sketchbook before on his blog, so you might already
know that he keeps it with him all the time….drawing
new ideas…doodling…experimenting, etc. We asked
him if we could auction one of the sketches and he gave
us the one to the right.
This original Fazzino drawing was created
earlier this year with acid-free pigmented ink from Japanese
Zig Markers. Some of the highlights were done with regular
ballpoint pen. The piece measures 8.5" x 11" and
will come fully framed with a personal dedication on the
back from Charles Fazzino.
Here’s the way the auction will work.
We will accept bids until 12:00 noon on Sunday, October
4th. The minimum bid is $2,000 and the sketch will be awarded
to the highest bidder. It’s a blind auction so you
will not know what others have bid until the auction has
ended. In the event that more than one person places the
winning bid, a random drawing will be held to determine
the buyer who has the right to purchase the sketch. In that
case, runners-up will be given second chance offers to purchase
other available Fazzino original sketches.
50% of the proceeds from the sale of
this sketch will benefit the Muscular Dystophy Association.
Please email all bids and questions to us
at info@fazzinocollectors.com
Thank you and happy bidding!

"This sketch represents a style
that I've been experimenting with," stated Charles
from his New York Studio. "My images are so bright
and detailed and vibrant...I wanted to try and obscure
the details a little bit, but maintain the color, movement,
and vibrancy. I think it's an interesting affect. I'm
not sure how I would achieve it in a limited edition print,
but i really like the way this sketch turned out. It's
an interesting spin on Broadway - almost a psychedelic
snow storm!"
Happy Bidding!
