As DC Publisher and Chief Creative Officer Jim Lee's charity auction continues to raise funds for comics shops, he added a watercolor portrait of Wonder Woman to his stable of charity sketches.
Lee wrote on Twitter, "Wonder Woman watercolor by me goes live at 9:30 am PST today to benefit comic shops via BINC Foundation."
The full-color watercolor sketch will be available for purchase on eBay at 9:30 a.m. PST. Lee's sketch is a portrait of the Amazon Princess looking at the viewer while appearing to be both demure and strong.
Lee revealed that the next few sketches will be more experimental, before returning to his standard ink and pen drawings in the final stretch. He wrote on Instagram, "Winner gets to choose the next DC character I will draw! Sketches 41-50 will be experimental multimedia in nature. Sketches 51-60 will return to a standard pen, ink and whiteout on 9x12” board to close out this fundraising campaign."
This is the latest sketch in Lee's 60-day charity auction. In addition to the full-colored DC superhero sketch, Lee also did a full-color sketch of Batman along with Hush and Brainiac. At the same time, Lee has recruited veteran artists such as Clay Mann, J. Scott Campbell, Olivia De Berardinis and many more to make contributions to his ongoing benefit.
All the proceeds from Lee's work, as well as the work of other participants, will benefit the Book Industry Charitable Foundation in its efforts to help comic book retailers financially during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
