Upcoming Appearances for 2010

NorWesCon

This is a huge convention not too far from where I grew up and I really had a blast last year hanging out with the other artists. This year I'm going to be on more panels and my art will also be in the art show again.

NorWesCon Itinerary

Friday, Noon, Cascade 13 Steampunk Art From gadgets to weapons to jewelry, we've all seen fabulous steampunk paraphernalia. But is steampunk only for costumes and cool devices? No, we say! Come meet some artists who represent both arenas to see how they imagine, design, and create these beautiful steampunk works of art! Diana Vick (M), Myke Amend, Peggy Foy, Tiffany Toland

Friday, 1:00 p.m., Cascade 8 Copyright and You What do you need to know about copyright law to both protect your own work and ensure that you don’t infringe on that of others? What are the best ways to get your art out into the public but protect it from being used without your permission? How do the new copyright extension laws affect artists today? Come to learn the answers to these questions and bring some more of your own. Spring Schoenhuth, Tiffany Toland

Friday, 5:00 p.m., Cascade 6 Biological and Scientific Accuracy in Your Art To draw a dragon is one thing. To draw a dragon that not only looks realistic, but in fact could be real, is quite another. Meet with some of our experts in how to make anything that doesn’t currently exist look like the real thing. John P. Alexander, Russell D. Campbell, Rob Carlos, David W. Ehlert, Tiffany Toland

Friday, 9pm - 2am - Maxi's - Weird Tales party at Maxis - 9pm to 10pm is exclusive for Pros only

Saturday, 9:00 p.m., Cascade 9 The Business of Art You need more than talent to make a living as an artist. A monthly salary, health insurance, taxes, marketing, organization, promotion, portfolios ­ where do you find the time to do all that and still make art? Todd Lockwood (M), John R. Gray III, John Jude Palencar, Tiffany Toland

Saturday, 10:00 p.m. ­ Midnight, Cascade 13 Artist’s Jam Hang out with other artists, show your sketchbooks, and collaborate together. Tiffany Toland (M)

Sunday, 10:00 a.m., Cascade 13 A Print By Any Other Name… So you've finished your piece of art and now you want to make prints so you can sell it to as many people as possible. What is the best way to go about doing this? What the heck is a giclee print anyway? Learn about the different printing options available and where to go for them. Do you really need to spend a lot of money for a high quality print, or is there a less expensive but still acceptable middle ground? Mark Roland (M), John P. Alexander, John R. Gray III, Tiffany Toland

Spring Fairy Festival

I am really excited to be a part of the Spring Fairy Festival in Tacoma, Washington! I've heard a lot of great things but haven't been able to attend in the past because of conflicting shows. This year I'll have a booth with all the merchandise available here on my site, and probably more! Amy Brown, Jody Bergsma and Rob Carlos will also be there!

Announcement Regarding OryCon

I was really sad that OryCon was on Thanksgiving last year, since it meant I would not be able to attend. Unfortunately I won't be able to attend the 2010 convention, either, since it is on the same weekend as my wedding! I look forward to returning in 2011 and will still mail in my artwork in 2010.

MisCon 25 2011

I am so honored and excited to announce that I have been invited to MisCon as the Artist Guest of Honor! It is way too far away right now to post any kind of itinerary but I will definitely have art in the art show, as per usual!
