HYPERICON 5-DEEPSOUTHCON 47

Things are going swimmingly at the present.

My show opening at The Tim Faulkner Gallery (my first extended gallery showing in Louisville) is less than two weeks away.

I have my online gallery re-established (albeit sans the image info).

My online shop is now good to go (thank you again Deborah!).

And to top everything off, I'm going to be the Artist Guest of Honor for Hypericon 5!

This year Hypericon 5 is also DeepSouthCon 47, so by proxy I'm Artist Guest of Honor for two conventions at once. Not bad for this bucolic little country mouse. With all of the wonderful talent out there to choose from I'm sure selecting a guest artist was not an easy task, so I'd like to again thank Hypericon chairmen Fred Grimm for according me this tremendous honor.

Hypericon is an extraordinary convention. The fans are wonderful and the roster of professional talent that attends is growing yearly. Last year I participated in a painting demonstration with Guest of Honor Alex McVey and the multi-talented Deena Warner. This year we hope to once again provide a demonstration/workshop. I'll keep you posted on the details.
