Our friend Dave DeVries will be making his first appearance as the featured guest at this show. When he was at our Wayne show, he never put his pencil down all day! Get there early if you want a commission!

 

     Dave is an award winning illustrator/publisher of the book, The Monster Engine, which answers the question, “What would a child’s drawing look like if painted by a professional illustrator?”  The results are startling transformations of flat childlike imagery into fully painted illustrations.

     This technique came from Dave’s illustration work, primarily in the entertainment field-- specifically the comic book, advertising and video game markets. His clients include Dreamworks SKG, Lucasfilm, Universal Studios, Sega, Tor Books as well as Marvel and DC Comics, among others. His most notable comic works were in the trading card market, include the Marvel Masterpieces 95 set as well as work for both DC and Magic the Gathering card games. Recently, he completed a zombie Jughead painted cover for Archie Comic’s "Afterlife" series as well as multiple Sonic the Hedgehog covers.

      Currently, he works as an art teacher and professor for Jefferson Middle School and the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) respectively.
