LitGraphic Exhibition

I have 12 pages of original artwork from Mail Order Bride in a exhibition called Lit Graphic: The Art of the Graphic Novel. The exhibition originated at the Norman Rockwell Museum and features the artwork of 24 contemporary graphic novelists. The exhibition is now on tour and is currently showing at The Huntington Museum of Art in Huntington, West Virginia. The link to the museum is http://www.hmoa.org/  The show runs from February 20 to May 23.  After that the exhibition will travel to the following venues, James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, PA. http://www.michenermuseum.org/
Fitchburg Art Museum in Fitchburg, MA. http://www.fitchburgartmuseum.org/  and The Munson-Williams Proctor Arts Institute in Utica, NY. http://www.mwpai.org/museum/collections/  .
If you are near these venues, go take a look at Lit Graphic: The Art of the Graphic Novel.

Paquet Editions

Here is the link to my French language publisher Paquet Editions. http://www.paquet.li/  Once one gets on the site go to Catalogue and then to Auteur and you will find my name. Under Les Titres De L'auteur, the book "Couverture Bientot Disponible" is not mine. "Alex" is my other book that Paquet publishes. Here is what it looks like.

Inkstuds Interview

I wanted to post a link to a radio interview I did for Inkstuds with Robin McConnell and Colin Upton back in June 2006. Just a note, when you click on the interview you will hear "Ingenue" sung by Johnny Mercer. My interview is after that. Johnny Mercer is one of my favorite singers.
