Here is my sketch for Wonder Woman Day 2011. As you may know I participated for the first time last year, and since it went so well (they used the image for shirts too) I decided to contribute again. This is your chance to own this original art!

Wonder Woman in Technicolor

You may remember this image from Wonder Woman Day 2010. This time around I've taken the time to color it, thus enhancing the retro.

The inspirations behind my re-design of Wonder Woman are Mad Men, vintage stylings, secretary style, Bruce Timm, and making sure Wonder Woman was not wearing pants - because I prefer skirts. The only pants I prefer are jeggings!

I will try to have prints of this illustration at Curls Studio's upcoming convention appearances: SPX, Intervention, and New York Comic Con.

Recap: Wonder Woman Day 2010

Super Hero Weekend featuring Wonder Woman Day was held on October 23-24th, 2010 at Comic Fusion in Flemington, New Jersey. I donated a Wonder Woman sketch to their auction which benefited SAFE in Hunterdon, a non-profit agency serving victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. You can read about my art in this previous blog entry.


My art for Wonder Woman Day was selected to be used on volunteer and staff shirts at Comic Fusion.


Comic Fusion raised over $16,000 for the shelter!

Jill Pantozzi wrote about attending Wonder Woman Day in her blog, Has Boobs, Reads Comics, which includes photos.

I have recently created a sketch for Wonder Woman Day 2010. The sketch has been donated to Comic Fusion - a comic store in Flemington, New Jersey - to use in an auction to benefit SAFE in Hunterdon, a non-profit agency serving victims of domestic violence and sexual assault in Hunterdon County, New Jersey.


Above is a photo of me with Stacy from Comic Fusion as she picked up my art at New York Comic Con last Friday. I still need to post photos and write a recap blog for NYCC 2010 and "The Other Side of the Table" panel, but will probably not get to it until after I get back from Pittsburgh Indy Comics Expo this weekend.

The inspirations behind my sketch are Mad Men, vintage stylings, secretary style, Bruce Timm, and making sure Wonder Woman was not wearing pants - because skirts are so rad.

Online bidding for sketches is now OPEN and will end midnight on October 23rd. Email info@comicfusion.com to bid on all this wonderful original art.

Some artists who donated include Darwyn Cooke, Dean Haspiel, Sergio Aragones, Billy Tucci, Herb Trimpe, Michael Golden, Ben Caldwell, Thom, Zahler, David Mack, Jay Fife, Josh Lyman... and more!

Please bid on my Wonder Woman sketch (Carolyn Belefski - WW08) because I want to raise a lot of money for this cause! Thank you.

XOXO,
Carolyn
