Lessons from Gen Con

The print you didn't make is the one everyone wants.

Seriously, I got, like, thirty requests for prints of this painting of The Living Island from The Explorer's Guide to Drawing Fantasy Creatures. I would be slightly more wealthy today had I realized it was going to be so popular. Not to worry, though-I will be creating some 13 x 19 prints of this illustration soon, and when I do, it will be available for purchase online or in person at conventions next year.


The Living Island

I have been planning to write some convention wrap up posts, especially to share some exciting news from Gen Con, but I had to jump back into the projects I was working on immediately upon returning home. I will do my best to post about this summer's con experiences if I can find room for some breaks!

GeekGirlCon Floor Map

GeekGirlCon Artist Alley map

GeekGirlCon is less than a week away! I will be at table number 412 in Artist Alley, which is located in the exhibitor hall, rooms 304 and 305 on the third floor of The Conference Center.

I will be signing and selling copies of The Explorer's Guide to Drawing Fantasy Creatures, prints, self-published sketchbooks collecting my sketches and drawings, and original RPG and fantasy paintings. If you'll be at the convention, please stop by to say hello!

Help an Artist Bring a Dragon to Life

Between working on projects that are under non-disclosure agreements (which means I currently can't share them) and my preparations for GeekGirlCon and Gen Con, I haven't had much time to devote to my blog in the past few weeks. But I do have time to bring the cool artwork of a fellow artist to your attention!

Gunter Reimnitz is a talented sculptor we met during our trip to Vashon Island earlier this year. He's hoping to raise the funds to turn his fantasy of building a one-ton fire-breathing metal dragon sculpture into a reality. Wouldn't you like to help him solve the riddle of steel by contributing to his Kickstarter campaign?
