Markus Birdman’s Watsonathon Mural

During Mark Watson’s two 24 Hour charity live-streamed Watsonathon shows of 2020, various & glorious artworks have been created. Much of which has been auctioned off. But there’s also these print options still available!

Watsonathon – Markus Birdman

From May 1st-2nd, Markus Birdman created this Reasons To Be Cheerful world map mural. On one massive sheet of paper. For charity & joy purposes.

The finished mural was in itself auctioned off at the end of the show, and raised over £1,000 for the three charities:

FareShare, who rescue good quality surplus food that would otherwise have gone to waste and sending it to almost 11,000 charity and community groups across the United Kingdom
The Hospice Income Generation Network, which boosts fundraising for hospices, who are in danger of being forgotten about
NextUp Comedy’s Heckle The Virus fund, which supports comedians who have seen all their work disappear indefinitely because of this flipping pando

It’s beautiful.

We would like you to own it, as well as the winning bidder. Hence this online shopfront. Which in May raised over a grand for the three charities!

Your options are:

£10 download of the artwork (6850 x 4877 pixels jpg)
£10 + £5 p&p A3 poster, in 300 gsm colour, with a free download of the artwork (6850 x 4877 pixels jpg) – UK ONLY
£15 + £5 p&p A2 poster, in 300 gsm colour, with a free download of the artwork (6850 x 4877 pixels jpg) – UK ONLY
Message hello@watsonathon.com to ask Mark to sign the print/s you want, and pay however much your correspondent suggests. Prices are likely to be £20 for the A3, and £40 for the A2, plus the £5 for postage.

If you buy more than one poster, it will be £5 p&p for all of your shopping cart. As the A2 and A3 posters will be sent out in the same tube, from one address, and shouldn’t bump up the package weight to another postal price bracket, so it seems silly to charge people more for p&p.

How To Order The Mural As A Physical Item – UK ONLY

Please choose from one of these drop-down options, and pay using PayPal. You can add an item to your cart, then click on CONTINUE SHOPPING in the top right corner to come back to this page and add something else.

NB The plan is to sell off the remaining A3s & A2s from our initial print-run of 75 of each of these items. The limited edition £50 giclees are now SOLD OUT.

If PayPal is being a pain in the hoop then you can donate your money direct to the Watsonathon GoFundMe, ideally in the name of something like [Name] Mural, and then email your e-receipt to isabelle@comedyclub4kids.co.uk, saying what you want.

OR send ic_adam@yahoo.com the correct amount of money by PayPal, and add a note in saying what you want. (NB If you send the money to the CC4K email it will go into the CC4K business account. Please don’t do that. That’s for books. Though do buy our books! Yay, books.)
