Hi, everyone.

First up: I’m auctioning this original painting and all proceeds will be donated to Doctors Without Borders’ emergency response in Gaza. It’s 16”x20,” unframed, painted with acrylic and gouache on Arches cold pressed paper, and I’ll ship it anywhere in the world for free to the winner.

The phrase “The space between no longer and not yet” was written by Nancy Levin; the rest of the text was written by me. I wrote this when I left Em & Friends as a note to myself and maybe it’s a note for you, too.

I haven’t sold a piece of original art since 2011—all my work sold over the last 12 years was in the form of printed products—so I have no clue what this would retail for, but I’m starting the bidding at $250. For more photos & info, and to bid, go here. (You do need to create an account to place a bid, which I know is annoying but it’s to make sure you’re a real person.) Auction ends Wednesday, November 1st at 8pm PST.
