Comic Con

I'm back from Comic Con International (San Diego) and it was crazy. The show gets busier every year, and this was no exception. A sold out crowd was present, sweaty, and crazy-excited. I sold lots of books and did plenty of commissions. Even though it's a lot of work and quite tiring, I get to see so many good friends and meet so many great artists, fans and colleagues. I can't wait for next year.

I was quite inspired by a lot of the comic-book-art-nerdry, as well as all the great artwork at the show, so I recorded a new digital painting. This next one is more of a sketch and fun process, but I've been listening to the feedback and requests and will try to deliver. So quite soon I'll finish editing and post the new Digital Painting Podcast.

Check back soon!

New Book for Comic Con!

If you or a friend are attending the SOLD OUT Comic-Con in San Diego this week or weekend, you will love the new stuff I've got at my booth, table B-2.

Here is the first look at Blubber Lubber, a new book featuring the observant and unique people-sketching of Dan Hay. Dan is an artist in Florida whose drawings of interesting strangers are dynamic and hilarious. This book is just over 6" tall, thick and sturdy, and will be priced at a special rate for Comic-Con visitors. It will be available, with other books, this fall at ArtSquaredBooks.com.

I'll be doing commissions and will have other books and new artwork at the show, so stop by!

I caved, and it is amazing.

This is a side of artwork that I don't share or use too much, but am beginning to appreciate it more and more. Just a peek at a bit of the new stuff for Comic-Con in San Diego, later this month.

* this one is definitely inspired by my friend Alberto!

San Diego Comic Convention

It's the biggest show for media, entertainment, comics and art in the world ( and quite a good time for the art-lover). The Comic Con runs from July 24th through July 27th. Whether you like illustration, comics, movies, celebrities, animation, fine art, toys, sculpture, or just being around large, nerdy, sweaty crowds... this event can't be topped.

I will be at booth B2, doing rare commissions and introducing some brand new stuff! It's quite exciting, so drop by and say hi. And if you haven't made plans to visit the Golden State or to Comic Con yet, check it out!
