Barry Kitson


Here is an original pen and ink drawing by comic artist Barry Kitson. Barry drew this as a page rough for the 2000ad strip "Anderson Psi division" in 1987. In the end artist Will Simpson worked it up into the completed page which was used.

Richard Herring


As well as auctioning artwork by children's illustrators the 2010 auction will also auction other types of artwork.
Here is an A4 original caricature of comedian Richard Herring in ink and watercolour. The piece has been signed by Richard.

New Frances Cony book

Another "Art for hearts" auction will be running in 2010 starting during transplant week in the middle of the year.

The book is signed and also comes with a signed card.
Thank you Frances.

Art for Hearts auction

The Art for Hearts auction has now begun!
To bid for any of the items on these pages go to Ebay.
As Ebay doesn't appear to like plurals you'll need to type "Art for Heart" into the search engine rather then "Art for Hearts". Then select either "Art" or "Books".

Here is a link for the book search.
