Post APE 2011

After a month long of no sleep and non-stop drawing painting and sketching for APE, it's over! It went by too fast it seems. It feels like a blurr!

But it was a total blast. Even if I was dead tired :P I met a TON of awesome ppl and for the first time my art was fully exposed to the public. So I was a little nervous at first but after I got over it, I had fun. I saw many familiar faces and met a bunch of artists, it's actually crazy how small the industry is, I met people that knew people I've worked with or gone to school with. There are so many talented people its both intimidating and motivating.

I even got interviewed by Geek Speak Radio Show and you can check out the interview here on YouTube! (Don't make fun! I was a lil nervous..)

They interviewed a lot of first timers at APE so be sure to check the rest of their interviews!

Overall it was a rewarding experience and an awesome place to make a ton of new artist friends and connections. Will i be doing it again? HELL YES. I'm considering doing Wondercon 2012 in Anaheim this year as well. So be sure to keep an eye out for that if i get a booth :P

I'll post up more pictures as soon as i get them....... since i didnt take my own :(

UPDATE!!! Pictures taken by my cousin!

Here is me at mah booth #420 :P (note the candy!)

I had the a helmet on display along with postcards with info on getting your own helmet painted on.

My amazing brothers and cousins who came to support.

The Adventures of TJ & Skweek!

Fiiiniiisshheed!......


Ok well mostly finished. :P I had to stop working on it bc I was outta time. I have some small fixes here and there that I'd like to make that i'll do later :P

I finally was able to do a full painted revamp of TJ and Skweek. I changed them a little from how I originally created them and made them more proportionate and cute, etc. So I is happeh. Thank you Cintiq!!!!

Ape is only 2 days away and I had to be done with the painting asap so I could get it to print on time! Oh so tired... sooo tired. 

Ice cream time!

APE 2011

I am exhibiting at APE this year and its going to be my first.. convention.. evar! I'm stressed, excited, nervous, scared, happy all at the same time. I'm not exactly sure what to expect I know i'll have fun and it's going to be an awesome experience. I've never exhibited before because honestly I wasn't too informed you can do that, nor did I have a circle of friends who were into exhibiting, or artists. But working at Booyah I made some great friends who happened to be doing it for years. I'm very fortunate to have some awesome friends who help out and have made this process easier than it would have been. They gave me all sorts of tips!
