SDCC Art Heros!
↑ Row buddies! Jeff Carlisle, Ken Mitchroney and me. These guys made the best neighbors – so much positive energy and encouragement!
↑ We were able to commission a couple of original drawings from Ken Mitchroney! Click the slider to see the drawings – one drawing for my father-in-law who is an old school Rat Fink fan and one drawing of Donatello for our own collection. 🙂
↑ Awesome artist and writer, Katie Cook!! She asked me to draw her fictional children Declan and Callie from her comic Nothing Special. Such an honor to connect with her!
↑ Art trades with Carla Wyzgala! She is so nice and she draws such lovely ladies! So inspirational! Yay for making new art friends ?
↑ Master Kim Jung Gi!!! He’s a genius and I’m just super lucky to have his art book (with his original sketch in it!) and even take picture with him! (p.s. Thanks to the kind friend who took several pictures of me and Kim Jung Gi in order to crop out the funny mustached man behind us.?)
↑ I also scored this amazing poster from Jeff Carlisle titled “Another Night at the Warp Core Cafe.” This illustration has evvvveryyybody! It’s like a Where’s Waldo for Sci-fi characters and icons. All those tiny details are incredible and so fun to look at!
My Wacom/Clip Studio Paint Demo!

SDCC 2018
↑ Thanks to all the people who bought original art from me! I didn’t get a chance to take a pic with each of you, but I’m very thankful that my art has found new happy homes. <3
An amazing sculpture on display at SDCC – I don’t know what character this is, but I love it!
I need an angel’s blessing for a good SDCC! ?? #lucifersaved
This freaky horror dude was created by the lady standing next to him from the Cinema Makeup School.

Steampunk teacup lady – she asked me to sketch something in her sketchbook, so I drew her a little kitty with a her curls and top hat. 🙂
SDCC Prep
It’s my very first Artists’ Alley tabling experience! I’ve never had my own convention table, but this year (or last year rather while applications were being accepted) I decided that I just needed to try and apply. Carpe diem! Reach my life goals before I die! ;D

Actually, I’ve been seriously second-guessing myself all year. SDCC welcomes hundreds of thousands of attendees… the most talented and prestigious artists show their stuff… I must be crazy to think I can show my art in the same space! Maybe I should have chosen a smaller convention as my first-time tabling experience? Maybe I should be baby-stepping into becoming a convention artist? But, oh well, I guess my story will be wrought with risks! Here goes nothing.

I’ve always loved SDCC – The big studio exhibits! The celebrities! The cosplayers! The amazing artists! It is the biggest and most exciting culmination of entertainment all in one place and it’s bonkers that they even approved my application!
