Kobo Book Signing Recap

Book signings were a great way for me to do demos of my drawing process and our new proprietary pattern making software. I hope you had a great time, I sure did. Pic of the calm before the storm. If you weren't able to make it, make your way over to Kobo and pick up the limited supply of exclusive prints. Also if you get a book there you're eligible for a $500 canvas print raffle! 

I was hoping someone would take a picture of the full crowd, we didn't have enough seating so peeps in the back were standing. Thanks for standing while listening! One thing I've learned from doing the pattern making software demos...people want to know where to buy it. Right now there are no plans for selling it as is.

More signings to come in December starting with the Wing Luke Museum, Pink Gorilla, and Elliot Bay Book Company, as listed on my events page.

I Fart Rainbow comic debut at Kobo

Thank you all for coming out to see the show.  Officially kicking off the start of "I Fart Rainbow" showing the characters to the public for the first time at Kobo at Higo.  The actual strip will appear in 2010's first Ibuki Magazine.

Here are some pix from the show:

 

I had commissioned Harue Fujikawa to make me clay figures of Elly and Puri for me to take around with me to pose for my Enfu Flickr pages.  Here they are making their first public appearance posing for the show.  More pix after the jump...

Sakuracon 2009 recap

Sakuracon was like one of my new illustrations.  Color explosion.  I was blown away.  

This year was my first year at Sakuracon ever, and I had an exhibitor booth.  I just watched people pass by it was amazing.  I would say more than any other place I've exhibited, Emerald City Comicon or Akimatsuri, Sakuracon by far had the most people reacting to my works.  It was a great feeling, thanks.  The most popular prints by far were 'Nihontown' and the new 'EnFuBar' prints.  The new prints will be posted in the catalogues section soon.  Until then the only place you can get them in the Seattle area is at Kobo.

 

More pics after the jump...

NihonTown Bamboo Veneer

 This is far from an introduction to the piece, as it was revealed at Enfu's debut art show at Kobo in August of 2008.  But this is the first time I've posted pictures on this site.  Only 3 of these prints exist.  

I decided that hyper limited edition sets like these and my canvas prints I won't sell on my site, but at outlets that carry my work and at conventions (more on this soon).

One set will be going to the 2009 Wing Luke Art Auction.

If you want to buy the last piece please contact Kobo.

Well without further ado, here are the pics:

More pics after the jump.

Where can I buy your work?

Buy enfu at these brick and mortar locations:

The maps of which can be found on the 'Enfu Finder' nav bar to your right.

Seattle:

Kobo of Seattle

They have all my prints available on display, and they are the only place where you can purchase the Nihontown Canvas Print!  I don't offer the canvas print online because its a really big piece (12"x60") and I don't want to deal with shipping, but Kobo will take care of it for you for $60.

Bluebottle Art Gallery

Bluebottle is a great gallery with huge range of local artists.  Just walking into the store you'll be bombarded with an assortment of goodies.

Wing Luke Asian Museum

Wing Luke is located in the heart of the International District in Seattle.  They are the only Pan Asian Museum in the United States.  Also, they are the only Museum that carries enfu's work.  :P  Check the gift shop and see the awesome collection of inspiring and empowering art.

 

Portland:

Compound Art Gallery

Compound is located smack dab in the center of Hip in Portland.  Walk past the store and if the shoes and designer shirts don't pull you in, the vinyl toys and art pieces will.  Check them out and pick up your local enfu there.  

Hawaii:

Split Obsession

Split Obsession is my Hawaii connection.  They will have select Enfu products, for their select collector customers.  If you'd like to see more enfu products sold there please let Bruce know.  :P

They have two locations, one in Ala Moana Center, and the other in the Koko Marina Center.
