It’s Fanexpo time! Fanexpo (not to be confused with UFC Fan Expo) is Canada’s largest nerd prom, a 4 day extravaganza of comics, games, art, sci-fi, horror… and a lot of people wearing very strange costumes.

I will be at P006C, on the left side of the hall (according to the map). Here is a closeup of where  I will be:

For more information on the event and more maps, schedules, ticket info etc, please visit www.fanexpocanada.com

Will be selling some sketchbooks and prints. Please drop by and have fun!

P.S The Skywalk from Union station may be partially closed so you might need to hoof it on the street to the South Building. Check Twitter to see what’s going on during the day itself. Hopefully it will not be so crowded this year.

Couldn’t resist re-using this image I did some time ago for Slice TV

I will be in NYC from May 15-19 to check out Surtex, the National Stationery Show and meet some clients and friends.  I will be bringing a laptop though I will probably not be checking my mail regularly. Please allow for extra time for me to get back to you, or if it can wait, I will be back in the studio on Thurday, May 20th.

I will be at Fan Expo this weekend, Aug 28-30th, at the ‘Renderfist’ table @ A20. 6 of us chipped in to get a premium table, so it ought to be fun. We are right opposite G4′s booth near the gaming section!

I will probably not be at the table all throughout the convention (will miss out on the mornings and it remains to be seen how the workload will turn out later in the week). Am hoping to be there in the afternoons/ evenings.

Drop by and say hi! Artists at the table:

Craig Adams http://www.superbrothers.ca
Charlene Chua http://www.charlenechua.com
Ted Kim http://www.tedkimchee.com
Sanford Kong http://www.santopiastudios.com

I am going to be part of The Peek art show, co-organized by Urbanbloc and Mindzai. Expect lots of art, color, music, coolness, fantastical magic bunnies and technicolor unicorns. Ok, maybe not the last two, but nontheless, it’ll be awesome. Bring friends. Lots.

Or be all fancy and RSVP on Facebook.

Peace ‘n love, all that good stuff.

Went to The Deep Inside show yesterday, it was fun hanging out in the old Bloor cinema! That place is so old-skool. Someone burnt popcorn I think. Check out more photos and art on my Flickr, and pull out your 3D glasses!

P.S Limited edition prints of the artwork are on sale for $150 each. Each print is beautifully hand printed by Studio XIX and are signed and numbered by the artists. Prints are 18x24in. For more information or to purchase prints contact Rafi at Keep6 Contemporary.

Lots of thanks to Chris Palonka at B42 gallery for inviting me to be part of his upcoming ‘Illustration’ show. The show features 9 Canadian illustrators and will run from Dec 14 2008 to Feb 15 2009. Please check the galley’s website for location and hours.

The Speakeasy Illustration show was a blast! I had a great time. It was really tiring standing till midnight, but it was worth the sore feet. A whole lot of people showed up and there was some great artwork on show. I took some photos, you can check em’ out on my Flickr account.

Speakeasy’s annual Illustration Show is this Thursday, 4 Sep, at the Gladstone Hotel in Toronto. On display will be works from Toronto illustrators. Some of my work will be there too, and I will be there to put up the stuff and attend the opening. I may not be able to stay all night due to work, but if you are coming down do let me know so I can try and say hi!
