Hello, out there!

If you are in the Providence, RI area on Friday, June 15, 2012, be sure to stop by and see me at the Rhode Show, as part of the Illustration Conference. Here are the details:

When: Friday, June 15th, 6:30 - 10:00pm
Where: Renaissance Hotel
Symphony Ballroom
5 Avenue of the Arts
Providence RI, 02903

What is the Rhode Show?

It will be a gathering of over 60 artists from across the country in a portfolio showcase and marketplace event. If you are looking for an illustrator for your next project, this is the place to be. If you are looking for cool illustrated products to buy, directly from the artist, this is the place to be. I'll have some lovely pieces to look at, including the Captains of Industry calendar, featured on this blog, some handsome cards to take with you, and some limited edition 8.5" x 11" prints to purchase. Stop by and say, "Hello!". I'd love to meet you and discuss what I can do for you.

ICON 6: News from LaLa Land

Long time, no blog. My apologies for the extended delay. I've been expanding my business in ways that have kept me struggling to maintain a regular posting schedule.

But, I'm here, today, to bring your attention to several things going on in the world of illustration that you should be aware of.

ICON 6, The Illustration Conference, will be held in Los Angeles, Wednesday, July 14, through Saturday, July 17. I will be attending.

Several events will be occurring during the conference. If you are in the Los Angeles area, be sure to check them out!
