New York Comicon 2006

Thanks to all those that came by my table at the NY Comicon over the weekend. It was so great to meet all of you! I had a blast and I hope to see you all again next year.

It was so great to meet so many friendly artists and to meet a lot of people that I've only chatted with on art forums until now. The highlight of my trip had to be drawing along side my friend Stephen Silver and chat about art while he drew me a caricature. I started laughing out loud as soon as I saw it
