    I just found out that a friend of Michael's has started an ebay auction, where 100% off the money raised will go to Michael's van fund. It's actually a REALLY cool auction and for $25 you get a custom, one of a kind piece of art (and it's actually GOOD :D). You can check it out, here:

    CHARITY AUCTION - CUSTOM SKETCHES

    The artist is Tim Watts, who is the artist for The Nice Guy Comic. You can check out Tim's sketchbook here. :)

    That's so awesome! Thanks Jeremy :).

    BTW, the flowers in the Kingbloom logo reminds me of the Hooters logo...hahaha. I added a premium url for my fashion blog.

    Thanks, projectw3. That's very nice of you :D!

    Michael really is one of the coolest guys I know, which is why I want him to have this van SO BAD!

    np

    I know. I had my wife create the logo for me back in 95' when we were still dating. The funny thing is, I doubt that is what she meant. I am a bit more phallic when it comes to my work, she like Georgia O'Keeffe will always claim there is nothing sexual in her art.

    Thank you!!!

    I put a link to the sketches auction at the top of my website - which I'll be working on getting into the public view today. Hopefully it might push a little traffic their way before the end of the auction.

    My brother has MS which is unfortunate, also. Michael seems like a positive guy, that's important! I donated what I could. =)

    Summer, wont you add me on MySpace? I am /burnedtoast .

    It's already up to $4500! How cool is that?! Mike added a Van-o-Meter on the donation page, so we can see the progress:

    The charity auction for Michael, is going extremely well! Not only have all 10 drawings been bid on, the minimum per picture is up to $35.51. That means another $355 towards the van fund.

    Also, Michael has added a blog, so he can keep us all updated :D
