:: fan expo 2009 ::

Come say hi at FanExpo 2009 this weekend (August 28-30.) My good friends Craig Adams,Charlene Chua, Ted Kim, Sanford Kong, Vince Chui and I are at Table A20. We are Renderfist and we will be selling beautiful artwork just like the ones in the above YouTube video!

On display at our table will be most of the 1000strangers sketches! I also have all three TTC prints on sale ($8 each or two for $15.)

The Darkstalkers tribute book is also being released today! Ted Kim, Charlene Chua and I were all fortunate to be included in this fun project. If you want your book signed or perhaps purchase a print, we'd happily sign them for you.

One last thing, please note that this weekend is the absolute last chance to purchase a first edition copy of The Legend of Ninja Cowboy Bear! The Kids Can Press edition is being released on September 1st at which point these copies will be discontinued.

:: 1000strangers for sale ::

Currently I am setting up an online auction for some of my original artwork. All the studies from my 1000strangers project will be available. Each sketch was completed with a black ball point pen and white gel pen on brown recycled paper.

These 1000strangers sketches mean the world to me. To help illustrate this point, when a friend asked me what would I risk my life to rescue in a burning house? I answered without hesitation, "my 1000strangers sketches."

They represent small snapshots in my life when I shared a brief moment with someone. And isn't life about a meaningful collection of memories? These moments are precious to me.

So then why am I selling these valuable pieces? Excellent question! I am now trying to help raise money for my wedding (I hear they are pretty expensive.) Knowing that they will contribute to my special day makes this auction acceptable in my heart and mind.

Hopefully they will all find good homes.

Selected originals will be on display at Pages Books Art Window (256 Queen St. W, Toronto) from June 28-July 26, 2009. More details to follow...
