AGNES GARBOWSKA--If you guys are into sketches, she's definitely someone you'll want to visit! :headbang: She does some nice ink work for her pencils as well. :)

 

Gotta agree with you on that. See my CAF (link in the signature), to find several pieces done by her. :)

Great collection--and I agree! That Spider-Man and MJ one is a nice one. In FACT, I think I saw yours before I had my Marvel sketch cover (that's in my CAF) that made me want MJ in my pic (though I also included Gobby as well)

 

I may try to find a witness to see about either another sketch cover or a commission piece.

Just about a month away from the show. As usual, a huge selection of comic dealers attending, from new to vintage, including Harley Yee and Comic Book Addiction.

 

Eddie Vedder and Joe Vriens will also be on hand to promote their new Darkstalkers book from UDON.

For Immediate Release

TORONTO, Canada (Tuesday, February 16)

 

Of Mystery and the Macabre: The Guy Davis Exhibition

2009 Eisner award winning artist makes rare Toronto appearance

 

artoriginals presents master of the macabre and B.P.R.D. artist Guy Davis, who will be making a special Toronto appearance at the Gladstone Hotel on Saturday, February 27 for an interactive workshop and exhibition followed by an appearance at the Toronto ComiCON as a featured guest on Sunday, February 28.

 

Davis, recipient of the 2009 Eisner Award for Best Artist, is best known as the penciler and inker on Mike Mignola’s long running series B.P.R.D., chronicling the supernatural tales of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense. Mignola, best known as the creator of Hellboy (who was a former member of the B.P.R.D. team), is also the series co-writer, along with John Arcudi. The Hellboy property has spawned two feature films and several animated versions. Fans and many industry insiders believe that B.P.R.D. is likely to be the next Mignola property that will be adapted for the big screen.

 

Selected works spanning Davis’ career, including Sandman Mystery Theatre, B.P.R.D. and The Marquis, will be featured in the exhibition along with an interactive and insightful workshop for registered patrons.
