Great News Fantasy Art Fans! Gary Con IV will feature a new attraction, the Artist's Alcove. There will be an art display on the lobby floor in the alcove off of the bar area (tentatively) where Jeff Easley, Jeff Dee, Dave "Diesel" LaForce, Doug Kovacs and Jim Wampler will share their works. The hours will be 12-4 Friday and Saturday.
That's awesome. My wife and I love to look at the art. Getting Erol Otus, too, would be really cool. I love his stuff.
Super cool. If possible, maybe some up-and-comers (like Ian Baggley, who is doing 99% of Jeff Talanian's AS&SH art) could get a little exposure through this as well. Kinda remind people that we have great young talent in our midsts. Plus, gives the young guys a chance to rub elbows with the more established guys.
Are you guys familiar with Mark Allen? He lives in the Wisconsin area and has done some work for Troll Lord Games as well as some of the Old School writers. He's a pretty good guy and has been to GaryCon in the past.
I'm looking forward to this and it is nice to know who will be there in advance and where. I might just have to figure out what I have that I might be able to get signed.
VERY great idea, chainsaw/Melf. (Hmm...."Chainsaw Melf." Has a certain, grisly ring to it) ((next Halloween session villain...)) "Gather ye 'round, all who dare, for the tale o' Chainsaw Melf..." Yep.
