SDCC: The Name of the BEAST




These suckers are all convention commissions from years past done on the spot during the San Diego convention. My attitude towards commissions has always been that I want to give people the best drawing possible given the limited time frame. This means that they take a while to complete, therefore I usually take no more than five or six a show. Since I've almost always taken the list on Preview night, those unfortunate souls who get to the show on Thursday or Friday find the list full before they even step foot inside the convention hall.

This year I'm taking a different approach to my San Diego Convention commissions. To try and squeeze a few more drawings in than usual, my art dealer extraordinaire Mark Hay over at Spashpageart.com is taking a list before the show for first time via his website. If you're attending the marvelous monster that is SDCC and want a drawing, click on the link below to splash page art and check out the rules of the game.

While you're there, take the time to thumb through the AMAZING art he has for sale. He reps some of the best guys in the business, and you can find some fantastic originals by the likes of Tim Bradstreet, Edvin Biukovic, Cliff Chiang, and many more. That's right, I said Edvin Biukovic......

    Are you gonna be doing the same thing at NYCC because I'd love to be able to be put on a list ahead of time so I can guarantee a piece from you?

    Wow, that Captain Mar-Vell was done on the spot? Unbelievable!
    Splash Page Art is a great dealer. I've eyed pages of yours there along with some Duncan Fegredo, John Paul Leon, and Cliff Chiang's more than once...

    I won't be able to attend SDCC but my friend will. I'm trying to get on the commission list but Mark hasn't replied to my email yet. Any way you could help me get on it? I have specific reference I'd like to send you.
