And yet more of Seeing Stories! Now with photos!

The Whitman College newspaper, The Pioneer, ran a nice write up of the Seeing Stories: Traversing the Graphic Narrative exhibit and most importantly of all, it has some stunning photographs. The article is here and the photos are posted down below. All the photos are taken by Tywen Kelly.

The exhibit runs from now until Dec 11. Catch it if you can and please send me lots of photos and / or video if possible. I'll set you up with something sweet in return!

Seeing Stories: the exhibition

As mentioned a few days ago, my double page spread from Colonial Comics is on display in this exhibition in the Sheehan Gallery in Whitman College in Walla Walla from Sept 1 to Dec 11. To have my art on display with artists such as Alison Bechdel, Craig Thompson, Joe Sacco, Chris Ware, Shimura Takako, Regis Loisel & Jean-Louis Tripp, David Mazzuchelli, R. Crumb, and Matt Kindt is humbling indeed. Colonial Comics has its own alcove showcasing art from all the stories in the first volume and Colonial Comics editor Jason Rodriguez will be delivering a lecture there November 14. If any of my friends are close to Walla Walla and can make a visit to the gallery, I would absolutely love a few photos or video for posterity's sake. I would love to draw something for you for your effort!

The schedule of the lectures that are part of the exhibition is here.

Seeing Stories.

I'm VERY excited to finally announce this. The Sheehan Gallery of Whitman College is hosting a semester long show of comics and comics art called Seeing Stories: Traversing the Graphic Narrative. The show also includes art by many impressive artists, some of whom I can finally spill because they are listed in the announcement as giving lectures, such as Alison Bechdel, Joe Sacco, Craig Thompson, JeanLouis Tripp, and François Lapierre! Colonial Comics has an entire alcove for this exhibition and the double page spread I drew for the book will be on display along with art from each of the stories. Colonial Comics editor, Jason Rodriguez, will also be delivering an lecture there in November. There are more big names whose art is in the exhibition to announce soon. The show opens up September 1st and runs through until December 11.

I'm just blown away to be in this show with artists of this caliber!
