C2E2 is this weekend!
One of the things I love about conventions is that I get to see so many friends and make new ones…people whom I usually interact with on twitter and Facebook and see only at the cons.
This year, there are so many people whose work I love and admire at C2E2 and I thought instead of making some gigantic run of tweets, I’d compile a master list of people whose tables at Artist’s Alley are definitely worth your taking a look. Because everyone needs a convention budget…or else you end up just buying everything that catches your fancy…and these individuals are the best people to acquire beautiful works from, whether books, little curios, or art ready to be framed and hung on the wall. I have bought much and given to kickstarters for many of the people on this list, and they are wonderful individuals.
I must give pride of place to Sara Woolley in T7 because she and I have been working together for over a year on a project which shall be discussed on this site all the more in the coming months. I met her in October 2013 at NYCC when I walked by her table and her art made me stop and look. Time for all of you to have the same sensation!
