Wounded Warrior Project: Live-Art Donation to Charity Auction

In addition to donating original art to the Saturday evening, May 18 charity auction supporting the Wounded Warrior Project/Dallas Comic Con, Doug participated in the live-art portion of the evening.
 
His classic Sneyd bunny was done on 16 x 20 Arches of France cold press art board, which he also uses for his Playboy cartoons.
 




Doug is also donating original artwork and a signed limited edition print to the Dragon*Con 2013 charity auction; proceeds will benefit 3 charities - Noah's Ark Animal Sanctuary, the Georgia Conservancy and the Marcus Autism Center.

Last year $45,000 was raised for the Georgia Chapter of the ALS Association.

This is Doug's second year as a Featured Guest at Dragon*Con.
