Welcome to the Art Jam Auction, Dec. 09!

The pieces you are about to see were made by Sheridan students, faculty, and guests during the four-hour art jam event in November. They are now being auctioned off to help fund the Sheridan Illustration 4th year show.

Bidding will open at 12AM (midnight) EST, Monday, December 7, and close at 11:55PM Wednesday, December 16. Anyone can bid - no account necessary. Simply leave your name, some means of contacting you, and the amount you wish to bid. If, at the end of the auction, yours is the winning bid, we will contact you regarding payment methods and shipping.

Every piece below is hand-made and unique, generously donated by the artists. We would like to extend special thanks to Cory Ferguson, Kathryn Adams, and Harvey Chan, for their valuable professional contributions.

The artists of some of the pieces have yet to be identified. If you created something on this page and would like to be credited for your work, and/or to have a link to your website, please contact us either through the comments, or at lizsherry(at)gmail.com.

How do I find art I'd like?

There are a few ways to find pieces you'd like:

1. Just scroll down. Every piece that is up for auction is on this page, and this is the best way to see all of them.
2. Browse by category. Every piece below is organized into one of the following categories: Three dimensional art, two dimensional art, art battles, vinyls, and vinyl sleeves. Just click on the category you would like to see!
3. Browse by subject. Each piece has a label which describes the painting subject, such as lady, dudes, or zombie space unicorns. If you see a piece with a subject that interests you, click on the label to see if there are more of that type.
4. Find your favourite artist. Look to your right for a list of artists and the type of piece they contributed (eg. Kathryn Adams Coat), then click on the one that interests you. It is sorted by category before alphabet, though, so you should check the entire list (or use your browser's search function) to make sure you haven't missed anyone. Some artists could not be identified; where their name would be is a descriptive word instead.

However you decide to search, with such a variety of contributing artists there's sure to be something that appeals - come in and look around!
