Fan Expo Canada 2011

Fan Expo Canada 2011:

4 days in the Artist Alley booth A140-P with the guys from Spent Pencils plus Neo, Reiven, Camee, our all girl support team. 

Met some amazing people and had an awesome time. 

I hunted down 2 different Squirrel Girls and gave them a Squirrel Girl print.  Sadly, I did not take their pictures like so.


Also had 2 new prints for sale:

Felicia from Darkstalkers and all the fighting games with Hello Kitty.


Harley Quinn and Ed the hyena from Lion King.  There were a lot of laughs for Ed.  Kudos to Ed.  He still has such a huge fanbase.  Thanks to everyone who gave these two fruitcakes a good home.


Here are some commissions/sketches I remembered to document.
 



 Mia for Chris

Buxom Anime Catwoman for Willy

 
Inkwash Batman Beyond for Ofir




Um, Serena(?) and Jenna, if you're out there, I forgot to take a picture of Trevor "The Thwarted (?) Vegetarian Loser"  If you could send me one, that would be awesome.

Watercolour Ibuki for Christian.  Also, if you're out there, I neglected to snap a pic, if you could send me one, I would be grateful.

Upcoming, a sexy dragon lady for Adam and Rainbow Mika also for another Adam.

Sick Kids Hospital

Back in June, I went the 2nd annual Sketches For Pledges event with a bunch of amazing local artists from the GTA.


The turn out was great and we raised alot of money for a worthy cause.  If you can, please come to the next event.


"The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is recognized as one of the world’s foremost paediatric health-care institutions and is Canada’s leading centre dedicated to advancing children’s health through the integration of patient care, research and education."
