Jolly Komiks DK! :D

Hello ya'll!

Back from Komiks DK, and working on my latest project; a re-make of my "old" zombie-love story.. My Darling Elizabeth. More about that when I've got some more pics to post. For now you'll have to settle for the cover-sketch. :3
(behing are the old pages (from last year)).

Last week one of my two second-year mentors, Åsa Ekström, was a guest teatcher at the Comic Art School here in Malmö. She's written about her week (and me! :D) in her blog. It was nice to sit down and have a meeting with her, discuss my progress and plans plans and get constructive critisism.
The only way from here is UP!

Then, it was Komiks DK this weekend in Copenhagen, Denmark.

It was SUCH a good experience! Great people and great comics!

Friday, I attended the Danish comic price award cermony along with my mentor Åsa, classmate Martin and teacher Fredrik, who introduced me to new people. Very interesting! I hardly knew anyone to begin with, but it turned out to be a really nice evening. :3

(Maria, Nat and I, enjoying the glorious fast-food of Copenhagen)

Saturday and Sunday, Nat, Teru, Maria and I helped out at the Genki-corner at the convention. It's always a pleasure hanging out with our danish friends! We sold our fanzines and Maria held a short drawing lesson. Much appreciated!

My dear talented friend and classmate Martin Flink's book The Man of Glass debuted! Congrats! :D Of course I got in line to get myself a signed copy!

I was published for the very first time! Yay!
The Danish anthology SPRIT (Fahrenheit/AbenMaler) turned out really well and I got to meet a few of the co-artists at the convention, who all seeemed very nice :) I stood at the SPRIT-table for two hours Sunday and helped sell a few books. Thanks everyone who supported us!

Also, I got Dave Gibbon's signature in my Watchmen book! :D I asked for a Dr.Manhattan drawing, and he agreed to give me one! Happiness! Fangirl heaven!
(he doesn't look too happy, but who cares? XD)

Conclusion; I met a whole lot of new people, got tons of inspration and bought a few comics. Hopefully I've learned from this experience and my new connections might lead me somewhere..

As always, thanks to everyone who passed by our table! :D

Love, peace, over 'n out!
