My FanX Art

Here's the art I'm selling at FanX this year. I paid a boatload of money for decent prints (all but cleaned out my savings account and had to ask Mom for a little extra help) but in the event that my physical stock runs out or someone doesn't want physical clutter, digital images will be available for a reduced price. 

This is also my "digital catalog," hence the corner numbers.  



























FanX 2022

A major dream coming true is just on the horizon! On September 22 through September 24, I shall have the privilege of attending FanX in Salt Lake City!


Not only that, but I shall be in the show itself!!!





It's been a long, tedious, highly expensive process; pretty much all my money has been spent. 

But it's for a worthy cause. I will have a chance to meet a few childhood idols face-to-face, my art will be in the public's eye, and with any luck, someone will like me enough to buy my stuff, and I'll make back what I put out with some interest on the side. 

As for the celebrities, the ones I'm guaranteed to meet in the flesh are the ones I paid for a special "photo op." Those weren't at all cheap, either, and had I more money, I would have paid for more. 

But I did pay for a photo op with Jodi Benson...

...AJ McLean from Backstreet Boys...

...Cary Elwes from The Princess Bride...

...and Steve Burns from Blue's Clues

I'll show the art I'm selling in a separate blog, but I daresay this is my best work yet. Of course, I had to make the extra effort due to this stuff going to a public place to sell for cash. My buddy Kel helped me out, so she'll get a decent share of whatever profits I earn. 

Oh, boy, this is so exciting, and so-o-o-o-o nerve-wracking! I hope I'll be able to sleep these next two nights.

21-Year 9-11 Tribute

I've been making a little memorial collage for September 11 for quite some time now. 
 
It's with great bittersweetness that I present to you the collage to mark year 21 since that dark day.
 
 
And here's last year's memorial: 
 

SNAP Around the World

Every year, my family participates in the SNAP program and I try to attend at least one of the two performances. This year, I was able to ...
