My work is on exhibit

From Friday, Jan 6, 2012 - Friday, Jan 27, 2012, I'll be part of an exhibit at the Caldwell Arts Council in Lenoir, NC.Lenoir is located in the foothills of North Carolina just about 20 miles south down US Hwy 321 from Boone, about an hour north of Gastonia, NC on the same Hwy 321. Lenoir is about 2 hours at the most from most parts of Charlotte, NC, and Winston-Salem, NC. Visit this link for more on the Caldwell Arts Council. They are open Tuesday-Friday from 9am - 5pm. The Opening reception is on Friday, Jan 6 from 5pm-7:30 pm. I'll be there schmoozing since I'm a part of the show, so if you can make it, I'll be glad to see you. Here's a preview of some of the work you'll see in the show.

Charlotte Comicon - Sunday, Dec. 18th 10am - 4pm

Looking for something to do this weekend? Still have shopping to do before the holidays? Well look no further! The Charlotte Comicon will be held this Sunday at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Charlotte from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. There will be great deals on comics, books, art, toys, movies, sci-fi & fantasy memorabilia and much more! And if that's not enough, a ton of local artists will be on hand selling their books and art!

Swing by and say hello, I'll be set up with Henry Eudy selling our 11 x 17 Darkwing Duck print (see attached pic) and sketchbooks. Henry will have a selection of his mini comics and I'll have all of the Big Dog's Studio sketchbooks and the Sketch Charlotte Anthology. We'll both have original art for sell and will be sketching at the show.

Along for the ride we'll be sitting next to fellow Sketch Charlotteans Herc Petmezas, Stan Ford and Jonathan Rosenbaum! They'll al have something special for sale along with original art, comics and trading cards!

Batwoman

Brandon made me swear to post this on the blog, so here it is, with no tie to any of current threads...Batwoman.

With this I was trying out my shortcut method of drawing characters that wear mostly black.

Sketchbook for my Son...

I've decided to start a sketchbook for my 16 month old son. I know it's a tad early, but I had this small 5 x 7 sketchbook laying around, so why not!?

We had "sketchbook night" at Sketch Charlotte last night so I took it and got a few new sweet pieces to go along with the two awesome pieces I got last week.

I'm asking for cute animals or superheroes, so if you're an artist and I know you...I WANT YOU IN THIS BOOK! :)

Here's what I have so far...

Krypto the Super Dog by Stan Ford




















Stinky/Angry/Cute Hulk by Rico Renzi





















Honey Bear by Herc Petmezas





















Cute Armadillo by Henry Eudy
