I can't believe it's almost here...I am definitely feeling it now and things at Wildstorm are already morphing with people making plans....news of who is coming into town etc. It get's me excited and also feeling choked for more time all at once. I started making mental check lists..."ok you need to get this art together, make prints of this, are you getting a banner this year or not?"

all that kind of stuff.

The Einser's kind of keeps popping into my mind because it's just so weird getting the nominations, but I am like very aware I have to go and it puts me in a spot where I have to decide...do I wear 'big boy pants' (anyone who's ever met me in the last 5 or 10 years knows I am almost 100% of the time wearing black dickies shorts...with some sort of comic related Jim Lee Batman shirt...(or I am naked, covered in blood running from a crime scene.) But that's a whole OTHER story/



so yeah I was just wondering who here is going, are you in artist alley, did you and your friends get a booth, are you walking around trying to get some feedback, or maybe a portfolio review/ What's your game plan?

I was kinda thinking of what I want to buy this year....I think it's basically new art supplies I've never tried, and maybe some Gnomon DVD's/

I do like to go to Budplant and look at the artbooks...but I am so art-booked out....unless it's some digital painter or traditional artist (painter)....I don't see myself buying much in the way of books not related to painting this year.
