100 Artists Project - Round Two!

[xadrian]

Welcome

The first volume is up for sale at Indy Planet.

The 100 Artists Project is a charity endeavor created to help raise money for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund and The Hero Initiative. Anyone can participate. The project assembles artwork into sketchbooks and mails sketchbooks to participants and the completed books are auctioned and then later published. All proceeds go to the funds.

After many months of promises and false starts, the second round of the 100AP is underway. Please visit the main site for all the details.

What's New?

I've broken up the original projects and have added a few more. The mail in 100 now ties in to the CBLDF and the sketchbook goes to Hero. The new ones are the 25 piece youth project supporting the International Child Art Foundation, the 50 piece digital art supporting the Chicago Arts Partnerships in Education and the Moleskine book supporting the Center for Cartoon Studies.

The sign up page is active and I'll be sending out emails to the charities as well as some studios to drum up interest. If you're part of this community already, you've probably submitted work for volume one and all I ask is that you help talk up the relaunch anywhere you can.

Thanks for your continued support.

What charity are we talking about here? Xadrian's wallet charity?

I'm game. I've actually done this before with a couple eBay sellers. They send me their sketchbooks to draw in and after I'm finished, I send it back. One guy even had a Jim Lee Wolverine piece in his that was SWEET AS HELL! I couldn't believe I was allowed to draw in the same book as Jim Lee did.

I wish!

We'll either go with the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund or the Hero Initiative, but FIG also had an idea about donating the proceeds to a needy school or library. I'm completely open to suggestions on the subject. If it does well we could conceivably split it up among several organizations.

If someone keeps it for a month to do a drawing in it...they need a swift kick to the nuts. It's a sketchbook...just draw a damn sketch in it and get it back in the mail to the next person.

I like the Hero Initiative idea more than the CBLDF.
