With the lingering malaise of Dragon Con still upon me, I’m preparing for yet another convention! This time, it’s Anime Weekend Atlanta, September 18 – 20, at the Renaissance Waverly Hotel and Cobb Galleria Centre in Atlanta, Georgia.
I’ve not been a part of the Artist Alley for a few years now (though some of you may recall my 2 year stint years ago when I was just getting my convention legs). AWA was my first convention and I’m amazed at how much it’s grown since I was first peddling cheap prints and cheap frames. I’m hoping to make my big return to the new, improved AWA Artist Alley with so much more to bring to the table than what I had when I first started there.
I will have more custom glass tile art pendants, double matted signed prints, unmatted signed prints, and mousepads. The catchphrase I mentioned earlier is still active, if you’re wanting a 5% discount. No one even mentioned it at Dragon Con *sadface* Is it so hard to admit that Elves smell better?
Not too far from my table will be the AWA art show, which will be in the same room as the AA this year. I will have more original art on display and double matted signed prints there, if you want a chance at a deal with competitive auction pricing.
Please note the following hours for this year’s AA:
Friday: 9AM-11PM
Saturday: 8AM-11PM
Sunday: 8AM-4PM
To preserve my sanity, I will only be staying till 8pm on Friday and Saturday and the whole day on Sunday. Also, I’ll be running a panel on how to paint skin tones in watercolor in room 106 at 8pm on Friday.
The fun never ends in convention-land! I think I’m getting too old for this already!
