Artists from around the video game and movie industries have come together under a common theme: Beautiful Grim.  Organized by Mythic concept artist Mike “Daarken” Lim and Dreamworks Animator Leif Jeffers, the fundraiser came together when Mike’s girlfriend, Cat Rey went through a bilateral mastectomy and 16 weeks of chemotherapy. Everyone knows that health care in the United States is substandard. In the end bill you receive can be devastating to your life and livelihood (even with health insurance). Money raised will go to support those costs and any excess amounts will be put directly towards a breast cancer charity.

The a lot of the artwork for the upcoming auction is available for viewing online.  While they are no longer accepting artwork for the show you can still contribute to the fund.  Please visit www.beautifulgrim.org and donate today.

Support for the upcoming online auction has included contributions of personal artwork from over 200 artists from studios such as ArenaNet,  Big Fish Games,  BioWare, Blizzard, Blur, Blue Sky Studios, Disney, Dreamworks Animation, Electronic Arts,  Massive Black, Mythic, Offset,  Pixar, Rockstar, Red 5 Studios, and  Zynga.
