It wasn't me I swear... I've been framed!

Just a few photos of Cancertown art at the Feile art exhibition, Westcourt Centre , 8-30 Barrack Street, Belfast running from now until 14th August 10am - 4:30pm:
Having artwork framed and hung on the wall at the exhibition makes you feel like a proper artist :)

Above is the first page I drew for Cancertown, back when having a full comic page completely finished was a big achievement. Because I'm a big sentimentalist (it could be a real word..), this one's not for sale.

Some of my art hung next to Sharon Morgan's (on the wall) and Kevin Quinn's ceramic celtic art (on the shelf). Ourselves along with Donal Daly are the four featured artists on display.

The top piece in this photo was always intended to be viewed vertically, (I thought Grey fighting against gravity after being knocked to the ground would convey a lot of energy and power to the blow) but since everyone else thinks its a horizontal piece, and I've been told it look better rotated 90 degress, I decided to hang it on its side. The bottom page is just a print of Bad Rain, one of the Cancertown double page spreads and the inspiration behind the Cancertown quilt, but I thought a bit of colour (by Mel Cook) would add to the exhibition and be a better representation of what's in the graphic novel.

I should have a bit of info on another project I'm involved with on Sunday so come back then...

I'm an exhibitionist..

I'm taking part in an art exhibition thats starting tomorrow in Belfast. It's in association with the Belfast Feile and I'll be showing off a few pages of Cancertown.

It runs from 3rd to the 14th of August at Westcourt Centre , 8-30 Barrack Street from 10am to 4:30pm and I'll at least be in attendance on Saturday 8th as I'm doing some Traditional irish music workshops in the same building. There are a a select few pages up for sale (7 pages in all, and a couple I'm not selling)

There will also be a copy of Cancertown on display and you can order it anytime during the week if you havn't got a copy.

The listing for the event is only available on PDF form (or there are brochure books floating around Belfast) but its available on pg 92 of this PDF booklet if you don't trust me :)

Here's one of the pages that will be on display. Since i'm so nice, I'd thought I'd show you the pencils, inks and finished coloured and lettered page. Naturally the original art is only in ink so that's the version that will be at the exhibition.
Colours by Mel Cook and Letters by Nic Wilkinson on the above version. And I have to give Cy a credit too as he actually wrote the scene :)

I've had to name the pieces that I have on display so those who have read the book can play the fun game of guessing which pages are on display. if you think you know or want to hazard a guess leave and comment below and the grand winner will recieve... uh ...pride?:
