ARTIST ALLEY Reminder:

This weekend, Oct. 20-21 it's Memphis Comic Expo at Agricenter International in Memphis, TN. Come say hi to me and Kevin Hayman of Everywhen Comics (The Errant Apprentice, Mailbox Rocketship, Kota's World).

This con is creator friendly and you will find tons of comic artists, from small and just starting out, to some big names work with DC and Marvel. I always enjoy this show! There are cool guests and awesome cosplay, too.

If your up around the Tennessee & Arkansas Mississippi River Delta, moseying through the Mid-South, or hanging out in Olive Branch, Hernando, or Southaven, MS–come on out to the con!

🖌️ *Olde Towne Market in Clinton, MS • Nov. 10: TBD

-------------

*please note some dates may change. I will miss the October Market due to previously scheduled cons. As always, I will have original sketchcards, prints and be taking commissions at cons. If you love my cartoony work, never fear for I still do it! I never like to limit myself to just one style, so expect variety.

Commissions currently will be taken at cons or art markets only, due to ye ol' day job taking up quite a bit of my schedule. To ensure you get your order in a timely fashion, I find making commissions same day at a market or con to be the best way at the moment.

Yes, I will draw you, your kid, your pet, your D&D character, your OTP, or your OC for money. 😉😁

FYI: I do reserve the right to decline a commission if I'm uncomfortable with the subject matter, (ex. super-acurate & to-scale architectural renderings or porn/hentai.) Extra characters, extra detailed and fiddley costumes &/or backgrounds will cost extra, due to needing more time to complete. Thanks for understanding!

Finished up the Inktober prompts from the MS Museum of Art.

Catching up on Inktober prompts for the #MMAInktoberChallenge. No. 5 is "state symbols." I knew about the honeybee, but DYK that MS's official state toy is the teddy bear?

Tombow fudenosuke brush pens in grey and yellow with black fine point rollerball.

Inktober 4 prompt for the MS Museum of Art challenge is "something scary."

[bluecanarykit]

So I totally forgot to post my Inktober drawing yesterday. 🤦so you'll get 2 posts from me today in Inktober.

Prompt 3 was to draw a plant or sculpture at the Art Garden at the MS Museum of Art. While looking at the garden's sign, my brain decided to take it literal and ask, what if art grew on trees or in a garden?

Ballpoint pen joins stabilo markers and mildliners on this one. I like the idea of trees and shrubs producing tubes of paint, brushes and palettes like fruit and art blooming like flowers.
