PAWS/LA’s annual art auction, Pet Art, came with a twist this year with the auction being held online from December 1-10, 2009. Innovating the auction process with an online platform allowed PAWS/LA to reach a nationwide audience and expand the scope of the auction process.

The auction featured over 80 pieces of animal-themed art in a wide variety of media.

World renowned artists such as William Wegman, Herb Ritts, Glen Wexler, Gwynn Murrill and Gary Baseman, among others, donated artwork for inspired collectors and art lovers alike. The auction also featured mid-career artists and emerging new talent.

Bidders were given the opportunity to choose from sculpture, ceramics, watercolors, lithographs, oil paintings, fine art photographic prints and more.

Year after year, PAWS/LA is proud to continue to offer outstanding art at affordable prices.

Proceeds from its annual art auction support PAWS/LA’s programs to provide care for the pets of people who are physically and financially debilitated by a life-threatening illness.
