since i’m up to my eyeballs in life, but yet in a sharing mood, i thought i’d post a convention sketch of mr. sherlock holmes i did earlier this year at the hobbystar fan appreciation show…

there’s really no radio involved here. just a lot of type written words on your screen, but if you are so inclined…

THE COMICS RADIO SHOW

another sketch from the fan appreciation show that i was part of back in april!

This Saturday June the 14th I will be attending the Toronto Sequential Arts Symposium. This function is being held surrounding the Shuster Awards and Visions of an Icon Exhibit and is being held at the Lillian H. Smith Library Auditorium located at 239 College Street.

Admission is FREE!

I will be set up in the Artist’s Signing Area, where I will be doing sketches. I will also have original artwork (particularly from my recent run on JSA: Classifieds featuring WILDCAT!) on hand as well as BNS and other related swag!

I, along with a few of my fellow TRANSMISSION Xers, will also be doing a panel titled Sequential Art on the Internet: Webcomics. The panel commences at 12 noon.

Now a bit from the official symposium website; 

Doors open at 10am. Between 10-5 there will be a series of talks, a signing room and the art exhibit area. Dozens of comics creators will be on hand to meet the fans and talk about their work and the medium! Talks include Comics & Kids, Webcomics, Writing for Comics, Superman at 70, Canadians & Comics and a Spotlight on Guest of Honour Darwyn Cooke (Justice League: The New Frontier).
At 7 the doors reopen for seating and at 8PM it’s the presentation of the 4th Annual Joe Shuster Canadian Comic Book Creator Awards with masters of Ceremony RICK GREEN and ROB SALEM!

welcome to my new blog/art site. for years i’ve had both a gallery site and a blog which both suffered from serious neglect. the gallery site because it was too time consuming to code and update and the blog because i was just plain lazy.

so this new home offers the galleries that were once on my art site. i will over time create new galleries showcasing newer material, but for now i just wanted to get things off the ground. the blog element will also allow me to keep you fine folks abreast of projects, conventions and so forth.

so kick back and peruse the site at your leisure.

since butternutsquash updates on thursdays (for the most part) and kukuburi on tuesdays i will most likely post to the blog on off days, be it mondays, wednesdays or fridays. so check back in when you can or just sign up to the rss feed…

cheers,

ramón.
