Say hello to Dr. Evil…and my slightly bemused son.
The last Sunday of July we had the privilege of participating in one of the largest geek, nerd, science fiction, super hero conventions in the world. San Diego Comic Con. Wow…what an enthusiastic crowd!
Of course there were super celebrities and super heroes but the unsung “hero” of this show are all the super, super talented artists through out the show floor. The drawings and paintings were extraordinary. Comic characters drawn right in front of our eyes…amazing! Caricatures, pencil drawings, sharpie marker sketches…it was all there.
Then there were the “you tubers” and my daughters latest obsession…Markiplier. She watches him all the time. These young guys are an entirely new form of “celebrity.”
Ben Affleck’s new Batman cowl debuted alongside these two artwork cowls. Handpainted and drawn…pretty amazing!
For next year i intend to do some homework and research some of these talented artists. Really soak up some inspiration.
Did you attend this year?
