You guys, TCAF is this weekend and like always, it’s free to attend! I’ll be at table #206 all weekend with Craig so stop by and say hello!

I’m also going to be participating in the Kids Comics Quickfire on Saturday, so here’s the info on that if you want to check it out. It’s going to be a blast, I’m super excited!

Saturday, May 5
1:00pm-1:45pm: Kids Comics Quickfire!
Location: Toronto Reference Library, 2nd Floor:
Appel Salon, Novella Room

Part drawing jam, part fast-paced game show! Volunteers from the audience are paired off with (or against) professional cartoonists in a series of fun-filled drawing challenges! Featuring Dave Roman (Astronaut Academy),Raina Telgemeier (SMILE), John Green (Teen Boat) and Bob Flynn (Heeby Jeeby Comix).

TCAF is one of my favourite events of the year, it’s such a great time and always worth coming out for! So come on out to Toronto this weekend for some comics and art!

The Super Punch Tarot art show is coming up at Bear and Bird Gallery! Check out my King of Coins piece on the flyer!

Also coming up in March is the Wizard World Toronto Comic Con which I was invited to exhibit at. Really excited for that one as it’s my first time attending the show! Hope to see some of you there!

Further down the road in May is TCAF which I will be returning to exhibit at this year! I had such a great time last year and met so many people. I’m really looking forward to this show! Best of all it’s free to attend so everyone should come check it out!

Lastly, Thurop Van Orman has started releasing some images from his new project, Black Forest. Last year he commissioned me to do some text embroidery based off of his design and there it is on the top left corner. Kind of neat to be involved in a tiny way

TCAF IS THE BEST

TCAF was AMAZING! I can’t say thank you enough to everyone who stopped by my table to say hello or bought something from me. You are all lovely and wonderful people and have a special place in my heart. Thank you for making my first time tabling at TCAF such a rad and totally amazing experience! Thanks so much to the people behind TCAF for accepting me into the show. And for putting together such a great show! And to all the volunteers for being so helpful and on top of their game! I’ve never felt so taken care of at a convention before! I feel like I spent the entire weekend talking to so many people but I still didn’t get the chance to see everyone I hoped I would. But you can’t escape my clutches and I’ll force my friendship on you all eventually! One of my favourite thing about conventions is being able to finally meet so many pals that I only know online and there was an abundance of that going on this time around!

Seriously you guys, TCAF is one of the best shows around. I could write thousands of sentences all ending in exclamations about how much fun it is and what a great time I had last weekend. Too bad I’m a dork and I forgot my camera, so I’ve got to go around snatching pictures other people took to prove the fun that was cram packed into the Toronto Reference Library, like this one from the incredible Joseph Lambert

So here’s to everyone involved in making TCAF possible! Can’t wait for the next one! Now that I am so inspired and filled with creative energy it’s time to get back to work MAKING STUFF!

Wow, what a weekend! I had pretty much lost my voice by Sunday night. Thanks so much to everyone who stopped by my and Craig’s table to pick something up or say hi! It was fantastic meeting so many of you. I had an amazing time all around and I can’t wait to see you all again next year!
