Giant Robot is proud to present Panelists IV, a group art show at GRSF.

The follow-up to the popular series puts a spotlight on indie-comics creators from across the country, ranging from stapled-and-folded stars of DIY to art-gallery superstars. The show will feature original illustrations, paintings, mixed-media work, and special surprises from an assortment of contributors--including many Eisner and Ignatz Award nominees and winners.

Darks, Lights & Colors

I sent three drawings to the current show at Pony Club Gallery.



Here is one of the drawings pre-color.

To see the finished drawing, why not visit the gallery?
Pony Club is located at 625 NW Everett #105 Portland, OR.

Why didn't I remember to scan the colored-in version before I mailed it?

SPX Report

I took an overnight train from Providence to D.C., and saw this sunrise somewhere in Maryland. It gave me hope for the show, which I needed-- because a rattling chair below a PA system is not the same as a bed.



Here is my mountain of books at the start of day one. (Also some prints and books by friend Jean Cozzens).


And here are some foothills of books at the start of day two.

I was tabling by myself. So, I didn't get to circulate as much as I would have liked. I met some nice cartoonists though, like Jesse McManus, Juliacks, and (new fav?) Jillian Tamaki. I wish I could have attended a few panels, although I did get to participate in one.
