eBay Art Week 7:


This is the auction that started my eBay tailspin. I did this because it was an idea I had for a while and thought this would be funny. On its last day on the auction it sold for $102.50. The guy never paid. EBay never reimbursed me. It even got kicked off of etsy.com. Marvel doesn't tolerate blasphemy and plagiarizing copyrighted material now since Disney bought em' out. So, now I am convinced it is cursed and hangs on my wall.

eBay Art Week 6:


This was probably one of my better auctions. Several different people bid on it. I sold three others just like it. Want one?

eBay Art Week 5:


This is another glow-in-the-dark painting. I thought it was funny. Another satisfied customer!

eBay Art Week 4:


Don't drink and draw. I have never really learned this lesson. I believe this was the second thing I ever burned. After I applied the paint, I decided I didn't like it. I got drunk and burned the name onto it. During my hangover the next day I saw I put the name on crooked. Sold for like... $10.00.

eBay Art Week 3:


So, I have always wanted to make my own frames. I started burning art onto wood. I created this piece just for the frame. The frame turned out okay for my first try.
There was a brief bidding war between two MAD Magazine fanatics.
It sold on eBay for $28.00.

eBay Art Week 2:


So, I created this because I wanted to do a painting that was startling at first sight. Using glow-in-the-dark paint, I painted this portrait from "The Exorcist". I wanted to keep it but, my girlfriend said it scared the shit out of her. So, I sold it on eBay for my second week of my art for a penny project. It sold for $20.00. One of my friends actually commissioned a duplicate. So, I really sold two of these. All of my artwork can be duplicated, if you wish to purchase a piece.

eBay Art week one:


I thought I would be able to start a buzz on eBay by opening my art auctions at a penny. I did not create a buzz at all. In fact I only allowed myself to be ripped off on eBay. This was the first on I sold on eBay. It sold for about $15.00. It cost around $20.00 to ship. At least it went to a good home.
