Auctions
I support initiatives that create tangible change related to gender equality and empowerment, disability support and research, low-income aid and resources, and education. Since September 2021, my art and books have raised over HK $200k in support of women's and disability issues.
Raise money auctioning limited series prints at your next charity event. Here's a breakdown of how I work with charities to auction art:

How it works
1. Browse
At the moment, only Gallery Prints are available for auction. Browse the catalogue here; then email me with details of your event and the prints you would like to auction. I'll respond in 1-3 business days.
2. Agreement
If the prints are available for auction, I'll draw up an agreement outlining the terms of the auction. For visibility into my terms and approach, feel free to read this blog post about how I work with charities on auctions.
3. Delivery
Once the agreement is signed, I'll have the artwork printed and delivered. Printing and delivery takes approximately 2 weeks. At the moment, I only print and deliver within Hong Kong.
4. Promotion
In the build-up to your auction, I'll work with you to market and promote your event across my platforms to ensure the lot gets the highest bid possible.
5. Sale
If the print sells, I'll invoice you for 50% of the starting price. Your organisation is entitled to the other 50% plus any other funds from higher bids. If the print does not sell, I'll pick the print up again after the event. But don't worry — so far, all prints have sold at auction.
