Niklas Anderson

Hey check out this great work from the friendly Dane, Niklas Anderson.
He worked with us on the layouts on Kells, and his new site is packed with goodness.

Colour

Inspired by the great art I saw in Epinal , from superstars Fabrice Druet, Bruno Brucero and the mighty Boulet .
Just adding finishing touches today to the pages coloured by Marie and Ray -
nearly there for the second and final "Tome" of Brendan BD - onwards!

Epinal

Here I am in Epînal France signing some comics and screening the movie for the fantasy fans here at teh Imaginales festival.
Having the comics out at the same time as the movie has opened up two pâralel worlds of audiences.
These folks take their fantasy pretty seriously , the festival is in a series of middle ages style tents and there are ancient celts, fairies and all manner of hobgoblins walkinga round this place.
Far out.

I also surprisingly bumped into an old Salooner Laurence Peguy who is selling her comics here too as well as exhibiting her paintings, she has been busy in the world of visual effects working X men movies , Despereux and the like!

Morocco

My first time in Africa, amazing place.
We are screening Kells twice today and doing a workshop, I have met some animation legends such as Erica Russell and Barry Purves here amonst the orange trees, chameleons and sunshine!

Thanks for the shout out Holger!
