BIG NEWS: Two Interesting Things.

First of all, ADVENTURE TIME #4 – Sweet cover.

You guys, Adventure Time is the greatest cartoon show ever.  I love it so much.  I also love Pendleton Ward, the creator.  But also i love Ryan North (He writes the stories for Adventure Time Comics, but you probably know his Dinosaur Comics). So i am super proud and excited to be a part of this Adventure Time Family.  By painting this alternate cover for issue #4.

The covers are all great, including one by Penn’s mom with a dancing heart dude.

Second of all, there is going to be a huge Adventure Time Art Show in Austin, TX at the new Mondo Gallery!  Penn and the whole gang will be there.  Should be amazing.  I wish i was going to be there.  BUT this painting from issue #4 will be there!  Check it out!  Here is the info…

Friday April 27th @ Mondo Gallery in Austin!

Ok!  That’s it.  You should go to that show for sure.

If you would like to view the artwork or see more photos go HERE!

If you would like to see some memories that i recorded with my camera, i will show them to you now!  Here goes:

Here are Bobby’s notes as they brainstormed how the show would go…

Here are some shots of the gallery.  Look at the amazing stenciled dragon tail design shape!  They did that by hand!!

This is where i read the book to everyone, while they colored. You can see the Dragons beckoning patrons upstairs to the show…

Knight was there, too.  He held the book prior to me reading it. A real helpful little dude…

There were things for the kids to color.  Here is an example of one of these awesome kids doing some awesome coloring…

Caleb drew West Dragon with pants!

Ava drew both dragons, making sure everyone knows that they are tight bros…

And here is everyone who helped make everything so great!!  They are the best gang!!

So thanks again, you guys!
