Batman Art for Charity Auction!

Journal Entry: Wed Mar 28, 2012, 8:30 AM
For a "dog guy" like me,  is heartbreaking to see the  many dogs, left away, living on the streets here in Brazil. Thinking about them, i have been helping, the NGO Projet Street Dog Adorers  (Projeto Adoradores de Vira-Latas, in Portuguese) every time I can.

The PSDA is a shelter where rescued animals live until they find a second chance. Currently they have almost 250 animals, including dogs and cats, puppies and adults. The primary mission of  the Project is to help the animals that roam the streets neglected. They are based in Viamão, a city really close of Porto Alegre, where i live, and its ran by Paula Correa, the founder of the NGO, who says, to keep the project, they have the sympathy of good people.

I have nothing but admiration for Paula. She makes an amazing work using the social networks, wich help her find home to the animals, partners to emergency rescues and donaters to paid veterinarians and all shelter's costs.

So, I've decided to auction some of my original pieces to help her to get a better condition to these animals, and why not start with theDark Knight piece above.

Here is the link: [link]

You can help them too, make your offer and spread it arround!

Thanks,



Rafa.

Your gallery is absolutely stunning. You can't even imagine my excitement when I found my favourite artist here on dA.
Seriously, you're my artistic idol. I absolutely love your work on 'American Vampire' and I can't wait to see more in the future.
I love your stylized anatomy and use of colors and shading, and especially your painterly style. :heart:

Hope you had time to read all that, and thanks again for all the great art. :D

I was re-reading all of my American Vampire issues, and I gotta say... your art is just so damned beautiful. I love how you make all the covers consistent within each arc, they look gorgeous and I wanna put em on my wall. And that splash panel in Issue 24. Just gorgeous.

Gostaria de deixar aqui minha admiração pelo seu trabalho. Tive aula de história em quadrinhos contigo, com o Rafael Kras, Coelho, Fabio, e colega da Cris e da Rosane nos indos dos anos 2000 (se não me falha a memória). Lembro que eu, a Rosana e a Cris mexíamos contigo que você era fã de Back Street Boys, hoho! (ou era com outro? Hmm...)

Infelizmente eu deixei de lado o desenho para dar prioridade a outras coisas (por achar que o desenho não me levaria a lugar nenhum ¬¬) mas aos poucos, mesmo agora já mais velho estou tentando voltar e retomar o hábito.

Seu trabalho está magnifico!
Mande um abraço para o pessoal, cheguei a falar com o Fábio algum bom tempo atrás, quando site da LegioStudio ainda estava no ar. Se puderes me dizer como entrar em contato com eles eu agradeço!

Abraço

Legal. Obrigado.

Não tenho mais contato com esse pessoal fazem alguns anos. Não sei nem se eles continuam trabalhando, pra ser honesto.
