GenCon!

We just got back from GenCon and I am crazy tired! That is a full 4 days.
I had a great table in the Art Show right on a busy corner. Occasionally traffic would get cut off by an autograph line, but that didn’t happen too often and I was able to talk to some people who had no intention of going into the art show before standing in that line. I was next to Paul “Prof” Herbert, which was awesome on its own because I am clearly a ratling fan. He’s also a really cool guy. I spent a lot of time making silly faces at Aaron Miller who was across the aisle from me. He’s probably the only person I’ve met who can rival my camera shyness ^_~
Print sales were pretty consistent through all 4 days, which surprised me. Usually Friday is pretty slow since the 4 day art lovers come through on Thursday, the 1 day people come on Saturday, and the bargain hunters come on Sunday.
I got some really good feedback from others artists and art directors who were in attendance. I can’t wait to throw out some new stuff! My star prints were by far “Tag with Fishes”, “Arboreal Skate”, and “Saadet Hunting”. I got a kick out of how many times people tried to walk past my table and ended up stopping to look at “Tag with Fishes”. It was straight up cartoonish sometimes because the head stopped, but the feet kept going for another 2 steps.
We had a great time and I can’t wait to go back again next year!
