BCGF!!!

 

I'll be at Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Fest this weekend in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY! BCGF marks my last show of 2012, and I've already started planning my next year, so stay tuned for that news. 

 

Find me downstairs where I'll have on my table the last batch of Nature Nurture zines plus a bunch of prints. I'm at table D20, next to Nobrow Press table. This is one of the more highly anticipated festivals of the year and I'm so excited!!

Stumptown + stuff I got at MoCCA!

I am exhibiting next weekend at Stumptown Comic Fest in Portland, OR! You can find me at table e-5 (map here) where I will have all of my screen-printed books, poster prints, totes (while supplies last!) and much more. Stumptown 2011 will also mark the debut of my brand new book, titled "hot + cold" Be sure to stop by and take a look! And if you love it it will be available for purchase. :)

my new book!

Here's some of the swag I got from MoCCA Fest 2011. Highlights include Ray Sohn's Pyramid Lake, Eamon Espey's "Death Deals", some of the "diary" series by Gabriel Bell, a bunch of square mini comics from the Finnish comic collective, screen-printed + b&w mixed minis from Alabaster, a fully screen-printed little book gifted to me by Jake Armstrong titled "What me and Tommy saw". The newest Secret Prison. Sammy Harkham's "Cricket"! Which I wanted but missed during Brooklyn Comic Fest back in December. And a Noel Freibert comic "Mr. Cellar's Attic" with screen-printed cover. :) "Secret Victories" by Victor Kerlow. Plus these precious letter-pressed coasters by Nick Iluzada! I don't even use coasters but I had to have these, I don't even know if I will use these as coasters, but they are super sweeeeet!

This was my biggest purchase at MoCCA, a screen-print poster by Sakura Maku. I've loved her work for a long time now, and I am really happy to have this!

this weekend... MoCCA!

I've been spreading the word and spreading it good. Pretty much been emailing not only all of my friends, but friend's friends, acquaintances, EVERYONE about this. I've been eagerly anticipating MoCCA fest for what feels like very long weeks! And the weekend has finally arrived, eeeeeeee!

I'm especially looking forward to running into old school colleagues, professors, and the huge array of cartoonists/artists making an appearance. I'll be in a panel which will take place on Sunday, moderated by my old professor. There's quite a few panels that I'm really looking forward to.

I'm going to try and make it to all of these night events, surrounding MoCCA (most of which takes place within walking distance from my apartment :)
