San Francisco Zinefest 2009 follow-up

The other weekend (8/22-23/09) I was at San Francisco Zinefest 2009 thanks to my friend Romy who allowed me to hang at her table and promote my art as well as the Cartoonist Conspiracy San Francisco. The convention is Free to the general public and features some of the best in home made comics and zines.

From the official website:
It’s a FREE annual two-day conference for independent and underground publishing. Exhibitors come from all over the West Coast, and while the focus is on zines, all walks of DIY life are represented — comics, arts and crafts, literary presses, and more. SF Zine Fest was founded in 2002 by Jenn of Starfiend Distro.

SF Zine Fest 2009 is brought to you by the hard-working folks at Family Style, Miromi, New Lights Press, Monkey & Seal, and many other wonderful volunteers.

The show was fantastic and there was so much great art and creativity in that room. I had a blast. I will be posting links to some of the creators I met at the show later this week.

Here is the table I was at…

Folks at the convention. Center is artist Karen Luk.

And to finish up, here is some drawings I did in copies I sold of my Maps, Magic and Menagerie portfolio.
