For the kats that have been to Dewey before you should remember artist Wally Brafield (aka Barking Dog Design group.) His Art studio is in the old legendary Dewey Dirties Movie Theater. He was a very kool kat that designed the downtown banners last year. Also did some very kool poster work for some of the show participants. He was a big supporter of the show and Im sad to say that he p***ed away last year. Id like to do an art benefit auction to raise money for the new Dewey Information center. Doesnt sound very exciting cause but this was very important to Wally and Id like to pay tribute to him by making a kool donation from fellow artist. So far I have Ron Myers, Ben Mitchell and myself that have donated art work. I need some more stuff to auction off. If your not able to make the show would anyone be willing to donate some art work for the auction? Sorry to ask for donations and I hate to bother ya guys but like so many artist out there, Wally was a very quiet guy and I think that he needs a kool tribute. Thanks in advance for the help. Happy Trails, Mick
Mick put me and Jimbo down for a donation of some art. We'll bring them up with us that weekend. That should raise about 12 cents or so.
Thanks Mik for the help. It is nice to know that I can give them a check for at least 12 cents.... or so. Ha, ha, ha, ha!
I can donate some of my art (on T-shirts) if that'd help... Sorry to hear he p***ed...he was a cool guy...and BTW, that's our pal, Ron Brown's '57 Ford retractable and Shane Savage's purple Chevy coop...interesting that you chose two people from ColoRODo... R-
Hey Mick, You can count me in. I was thinking about some of my original pen & inks of cars that we used on your events. Look back at all the old SK 500 and Lamar work and if they haven't already been sold we will frame them up and bring em. I am sure we can find at least couple of kool ones. We can deliver to Dewey, but we would have to wrap them in water tight plastic bags cause all my buggies leak when it rains. LOL B-Scott
I got some roofing tar!! Would that bring a few bucks?!? Lol sorry, I have no talent other than sarcasm to donate!
hey Mick is this going to be a silent auction. Or do you want to do it live. If live I think I could help you out. I'm not good but will do my best.
We have always done a silent auction before but if ya want to do it that would be kool. I can stutter just not in any rythm..... Thanks for the help! Ha, ha, ha, I agree he is a priceless...... We have so many kool artist on the HAMB and that attend the SK500 I thought that it would be kool to do something for a fellow artist. Thank you guys very much, this will be a big help. Happy Trails, Mick
Our Auction is coming together and we have some kool stuff being donated. We could use some more items for our fund raiser. We are raising moiney for a fellow artist that p***ed away last year. He started a welcome center in Dewey and it was going to be his proud and joy. If anyone would like to donate some art work, Wally's family would appreciate it....Thanks in advance.. Happy Trails, Mick
