We had a good group of guys at the Flesk booth at WonderCon 2010. Mark Schultz flew in for the event. Manuel Auad was promoting his line of books as well as keeping us company. James Walker was also on hand to help throughout the show. (Thanks James!) Next to us was William Stout who had a beautiful display of originals. Then, Stuart Ng books provided the endcap to our row.
I am grateful to say that with each year I feel we are getting busier and busier. Friday and Saturday were non-stop for all of us, with Sunday coming in waves between slow and busy.
The big hits at the show for us was Mark Schultz Blue Book along with all three of William Stout’s dinosaur books from Flesk, Prehistoric Life Murals, Dinosaur Discoveries and New Dinosaur Discoveries A-Z. It helped that Bill was right there doing dinosaur drawings in his books! There was plenty of good vibes and lots of positive reactions to the books and from those who were able to meet Schultz and Stout. Thanks to everyone who came by.
Sunday provided us some rotational time for one of us to break away and walk around for a little while. It’s always nice to see a little of the show to actually feel like you were there. Once outside of our booth my first stop was artist alley. There I had a chance to see Frank Cho, Jim Silke, Thomas Yeates, Geof Darrow, Rick Becker, Arthur Adams, and Sergio Aragones. Also, Craig Elliott had an impressive booth showcasing his latest paintings and drawings. Each of these individuals is a master at their profession.
Thanks to everyone for another terrific year at WonderCon! We’ll see you next year!
