Firstdraft Gallery: 6-9, August 8, 2012
There was a great vibe at Firstdraft Gallery on Wednesday night with the annual Firstdraft Fundraiser which consisted of a live and silent auction with proceeds going to the gallery. Was great to see some of my favourites up for grabs like Paul Williams, Sarah Contos, Will French, Peter Nelson & Greedy Hen. The live auction was hectic with bidders jumping in at the last minute pushing the prices up into the thousands. Lot number 15, the last of the evening, Japer Knight's I Made The Yankee Hat More Famous Than a Yankee Can, sold for $3,000, the highest price tag of the evening. It falls a mere $600 short of last years best seller Ben Quilty whose work Skull sold for $3, 600.
