A.P.E.

So, I went to A.P.E. this weekend and holy crap on a stick! it was a blast! so many great artists, so many great prints and comics to buy! I seriously blew a ton of cash there. And thanks to my friend and Networking mentor Steph Laberis, I got to meet tons of great artists in person, including one of my personal art heroes Shelly Wan! she's such a sweet person! It's so nice to meet someone who's so incredibly talented and still kind to complete strangers, no matter how bumbling they might be :D! I also met and had a great conversation with the awesome David Jackson, from Art Jumble and Cake. I think next year it's going to be my express goal to have a book to hand out and maybe even a table! I need to get myself out there. whew... APE also got me super-charged to get back to work on my art projects! hopefully I'll have another art post soon! :)

I saw Mike Daley had a booth there and thought about you. I was wondering if you were going to go to APE. I was there on Saturday and got rained on all day and felt very misanthropic so i didn't have as great a time as it seems you did. Though i did discover couple of cool artists and bought some sketch books as well as the third installment in the Bigfoot books by Graham Roumieu which i think you would love.

Party on
