WHAT'S NEW?

At long last! I am so pleased to share the full set of posters in my officially licensed trilogy series for The Lord of The Rings, in collaboration with Vice Press!


It was a labor of love (and about 6 months worth of work) and I'm feeling very pleased to have reached journey's end with the release of my completed trilogy of officially licensed Lord of The Rings prints this week!


I couldn't have asked for a better fellowship to journey with than Matt Ferguson and James Henshaw at Vice Press, and I thank them sincerely for their support in making this dream of mine come true!

Thanks to all who have purchased a regular or variant Jurassic Park lithographic print from Vice Press!



Since going on sale, the regular orange edition of 175 sold out in 50 days, and the variant blue edition of 150 has now officially sold out after 212 days. It was a slow burn, but I'm thrilled folks have eventually been finding it, and I couldn't be more pleased that my first ever officially licensed print release has achieved an organic sell out over time.


I have AP copies to release, and will do so soon. be sure to sign up for my email list for all release news.


I have 27 AP copies of the orange, and 22 AP copies of the variant.

I will be handling AP order fulfillment and shipping myself so I am only going to be offering my prints to US addresses only. Apologies to international folks.


(If you don't know what APs, or artist proofs, are: they are copies of the print that I receive as part of my compensation from the gallery. They are an additional source of income for print artists. They are typically signed by the artist and numbered out of their own edition. They are otherwise the exact same print the gallery sells.)


Regarding pricing of my APs:

The orange regular will cost $130 plus tax.

The blue variant will cost $100 plus tax.

I have allocated 5 combo sets of the regular and variant, and those will be available for $215 plus tax and will ship together in the same tube. I will offer more sets if there is demand for it.


My AP prices account for the $5 shipping tube cost and $15-20 postage costs.

That leaves around $75 - $105 in profit per print going directly to me.


Selling my AP copies at a premium will help me account for the last few months without income as I was working on my next two licensed prints (for Lord of the Rings). AP copies are a valuable way for me to make up for profiting only a few dollars per print from copies sold through the gallery. So if you think my AP prices are high compared to the gallery's regular run prices, you're right.


I always encourage people to purchase through the gallery first, as I will likely always sell my AP copies considerably higher, especially if they sell out at the gallery first. It's the only way I can justify continuing to do this kind of time consuming print work. As always, I am extremely grateful to anyone who buys a print. You all enable me to make my dreams come true. -C




I attended Mass Mini Con this past Saturday, and although a small event only in its second year, it had some big artists and a great turnout.


IMHO you should put this burgeoning con on your radar for next year if you're anywhere near the Boston area because I think BIG things are in store for the East Coast poster scene...


Attendee and YouTuber @TimTalksTalkies shared a video glimpse of the con and his thoughts on the day if you want to get a peek for yourself. I've broken it into a few clips that were relevant to me.



While I didn’t sell much on the day, I got to meet a lot of really lovely people and had some great conversations with fellow poster makers and poster enthusiasts.


It was extremely surreal to be tabling amongst a group of artists whom I’ve admired for years and comfortably talk with them like peers. It was a small scale event, but it felt like a big “how did I get here?!” moment for me.


These types of days aren’t about making money, they’re about putting myself in a place where I can connect with people. Being a work-from-home illustrator is very isolating, and days like Saturday remind me that I am not creating in a void—people are seeing my work, liking my work, and buying my work. It’s an overwhelming feeling, but hard to make it feel real.


Making connections that could lead to creative opportunities I’d never otherwise get is priceless, but much more importantly, Mass Mini Con was the reinvigoration I needed. I’ve been feeling so burned out this year, but now I want nothing more than to finish the work on my plate so I can take a break, and dive back in to making all new stuff as soon as possible!


Thanks so much to Mass Mini Con for having me back, to the volunteers helping out (shoutout to Jimmy), and to organizers Jeff Haidaczuk and Jessica Lin for making it such a positive day for vendors and attendees alike.
