Zombie Con

I had a great time at Zombie Con! Thanks to Stef, James, Elvis & co for doing such a great job. I think it's safe to say all us guests were very well looked after. It was great to meet Robert Rankin and his lovely wife, David Devereux, Stuart Conran, (make-up artist on Shaun of the Dead) and catch up with Charlie Adlard (if you haven't read The Walking Dead, shame on you! pick it up at our on-line shop) we rarely get a chance to chat at conventions. I was very busy selling our horror graphic novels, drawing Zombie Portraits! producing an exclusive Zombie Elvis art print and having loads of fun. A great event

Thanks to CAPTION 2008

A very memorable Caption for me this year. I have been trying to raise money for a new sports training wheelchair & Rollator for over three years now. Caption were kind enough to allow me to submit donated art (special thanks to Dave Gibbons & Bryan Talbot for donated art) for the wheelchair fund to a mini version of the now legendary Caption auction raising £100.00! I raised a further £80.00 selling books from my collection.

Then as I was about to start my workshop I was presented with a further £100.00 by the committee, as they had done better than expected with the main auction! They expected me to run a workshop after that! I could barely speak. The total allowed me to purchase a rollator and took me over the halfway mark for the wheelchair, so thanks to everyone involved it means more than I can say.

I did manage to complete the workshop and everyone seemed to have fun producing some excellent if twisted work! But given the theme was a timewarp in the Big Brother household what do you expect!

Finally special thanks to Jay & Selina for being my chauffers for the weekend.
