Scotch Corner - New Post!

Just a reminder to the thousands of regular followers of my blog (okay, maybe not that many) The Scottish artist blog Scotch Corner has a new post up from me. Demonic Angel is sketch I did at a previous Gencon. I was invited to the event because of my sci-fi work on Star Wars and Terminator but found myself completely out of my depth with the whole fantasy and vampire set attending.

That said, they were a friendly crowd and gave me some pretty decent advice on how to draw dragons, nymphs and other fantasy related characters. This particular sketch only survives with me as a photocopy now. Probably done later in the day and near the end of the event (when I started to find my feet a bit) this is still a favourite piece.

Click now and head on over to Scotch Corner to see the image and all the other lovely work by the Scottish collective.

Edinburgh Book Festival appearance Monday August 2009.

I will be attending the Edinburgh Book Festival again on Monday 24th August 2009 at 5.30pm for a How to Draw Comics class. It would appear that for the second time in a row the event has sold out! (yes, both tickets! ;) Sorry there wasn't more notice but you may well be able to follow up with organisers to see if they will acquire a different and larger venue for demand.

Looking forward to the Festival. Always fun and looking forward to Mark Millar's talk on the Tuesday. He wil definitely be sold out and will have sold a lot more than two tickets too!

Scotch Corner Blog competition.

The Scotch Corner blog (a bunch of Jocks who draw and collectively blog and post their wares online, myself included) are running a competition ever month to win a signed print, sketch or other for the winning comment. Pop by the site and have a look. Be kind. You are hardly likely to win if you slag us off, are you? A few kind words and a piece of artwork is yours.

Postage will be covered by ourselves (Scots are notoriously tight and stingy with money so we really are going some here!) Jon Hodgson's piece is the first up for grabs this month. Lovely signed Dragon Reign print.

Signing - Kingdom of Adventure Saturday 08th August 2009

This weekend I will be signing at the Kingdom of Adventure shop in Kirkcaldy. Pop along for sketches, some witty banter and a smile around lunchtime. Drop me a line before Friday if you are interested in buying artwork as I can only bring along a small selection of pages and cannot guess what may be of interest to fans. Prints are also available.

Looking forward to the event. Contact David at the shop for further details.
