David Choe Batman Watercolour charity auction on eBay(24hrs), by darkarts on May 7, 2020 13:40:14 GMT 1, Artist David Choe hasn't sold work in over 10 years (because he doesn't need to with all his facebook cash etc). He has put this original watercolour batman painting on sale through comic book artist Jim Lee for a rare opportunity to own an original piece of his.
There's just over 24 hours left on the auction, it's already up to a substantial price at time of posting - it was only a 3 day auction so thought I'd share here for anyone to check out if they wish.
Here's the link:
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Batman-DC-Comics-Original-Art-By-DAVID-CHOE-watercolor/202983323564
Here's the listing description:
Batman DC Comics Original Art By DAVID CHOE watercolor on 10x14” illustration board. Joining the all star legion of artists supporting the cause is my good friend—the ever innovative creative whirlwind that is David Choe! I’ve known David for over 13 years now and he’s always been an incredible inspiration to me in how he embraces change and fearlessly commits to paths less traveled. He has reinvented himself many times over his years, but the one constant is his ability to electrify audiences with his artwork and storytelling. He’s not done a lot of comic work and really made his name doing high end gallery exhibitions but even left that gig to pursue more personal pet projects. Regardless he’s a huge fan of comics and comic book stores and wants to help out with this Batman contribution which is now a 3 day auction on EBay! David doesn’t sell his work anymore so this is a super rare opportunity to own an original David Choe!
Benefiting comic stores via BINC. Given shelter in place restrictions, shipping may be delayed by weeks—thank you in adavnce for your patience!

I do like my Batman to be dark and moody. After all he is The Dark Knight. Also like that there is no bat symbol. Money going to charity is a big plus.

Such a small work on paper but BIG reasons for people to buy.
At least it goes to charity.

David Choe Batman Watercolour charity auction on eBay(24hrs), by treweman on May 7, 2020 22:27:21 GMT 1, I am very taken with water color as a medium, and although I am generally not a fan of most superhero comic art, I think this by Choe is wonderful. But damn. $17K is out of reach for me. I own a 2006 Choe original watercolor on paper, and I should be thankful that I acquired it when I did.

I am embarrassed to have written that I thought $17,000 might be a tad high. Just wow.

David Choe Batman Watercolour charity auction on eBay(24hrs), by shy on May 8, 2020 23:46:28 GMT 1, Crazy price. If you look at his auction results you would never guess someone would come anywhere close to paying that kind of money for his art.
But hey! It's a fantastic amount of money raised for charity. and that is what counts!
Well Done!
