- Unfortunately, My Wife Is Allergic To RabbitsDecember 15 2008
-

Unfortunately, my wife is allergic to rabbits. But that wasn’t the case a few years ago. Back then, she wanted a dog or a cat. I didn’t think that was a good idea because she always started sneezing when cats or dogs were around. So she wanted a rabbit. She didn’t have an allergic reaction to rabbits, so enter Hobbes. One year later, my wife’s allergic to rabbits too :(

- His Name Is HobbesNovember 26 2008

His name is Hobbes. But he wasn’t born prematurly on April 5th 1588. He’s not known for his work on political philosophy. He wasn’t the first to translate Thucydides’ History of the Peloponnesian War from Greek into English. Nor did he write a book called Leviathan. At least not that I know of. He’s just my rabbit.

But I do have a rabbit. A black one. Bought it about 3 years ago. Some kind of dwarf rabbit, although it’s gotten a bit big for a dwarf rabbit. I wanted to buy a Flemish Giant back then, but my wife was (and still is) scared of them fluffy monsters :)

- New on Auction Art: bidding via TwitterNovember 2 2008
-
Auction Art #2 is sold. Time to review the concept again. This time I add Twitter bidding. Which means you can place bids via Twitter. What makes this interesting for you is that you get a 5% reduction if you win the auction with that bid.
How do you place a bid via Twitter? Simple: send a twit to @auctionart, and compose your twit like this: “@auctionart I bid (amount) euro”
You’ll need to confirm your bid via e-mail (sorry about that, but experience has learned some people sometimes don’t know what they’re twittering). So please contact me via e-mail after placing your Twitter bid. If you haven’t contacted me within 24 hours after you placed your bid, your bid becomes invalid.
Please note that the reduction will be calculated on the price of the painting only. There’s no reduction on the shipping costs.
New painting online tomorrow!

Actually, I don’t have a dog. I’ve lied to you. I admit it. But my parents did. Let me tell you a sad story about that dog. One hot summer day, our dog decided to go and lie under our car. A cool spot, out of the sun. Then my father, who didn’t knew the dog lied under the car, stepped into the car and drove off. Dog dead. Not a pleasant day.
