As far as I know, she doesn’t have a DA account, but you can see some of her very talented work on her portfolio site (it’s still under construction: http://mindmapped.nl/

Setsunacutey: I also met her at the same table as Marissa. Together with some other friends (whose contact details I can’t find! I’m sorry. T_T) they were there to represent their Dutch Doujinshi circle, OpenMinded. I will probably be participating in their upcoming yuri anthology in the near future, and maybe their others too, if my wrist allows.

Tikopets: She draws really cute animals, and has even worked for some digital pet sites. She’s also got a portfolio site here: http://www.webbelart.be/ Worth checking out!

Of course, my friend Hassan who runs UtopiaComics was there, but he was so incredibly busy selling things that I didn’t get more than a few seconds to talk with him.

Dude, and this Oct. 25 I’m going to BD Collines again as a guest artist, and the day before that I’m going to TRY to get to Liege for ASIANIM4. F.A.C.T.S. was a cakewalk… free table, every Dutch person speaking fluent English… But Liege is like über French French, and I can’t expect many people there to speak English. So, I’ll have to practice my rusty Français. Bof, j’ai besoin de faire du pratique, non?

I ordered a portable printer so that in the future I can print out sketches/colored art for people on demand and on the spot, but it won’t be here for another 2-3 weeks at least. In the meantime though, I figured out how to attach my laptop to my brother’s old, unused monitor, so people can watch me draw on another screen turned towards them, while I work away on my laptop.

HOO BOY BUSY BUSY O_O

Unfortunately, I didn’t find out about it months in advance so that I could get a table, but I will be there.
This is what I’ll be wearing:  Hope to see (some of you) you there!

The other artist there was Phillipe Jarbinet, who draws a WWII inspired comic called Airborne 44, a very different style and story from mine! Nonetheless, I had a lot of fun talking to people and practicing my French (and having them practice their English with me!)

I’ll be attending F.A.C.T.S. in Ghent next weekend, if any of my Belgian readers are interested in meeting me there!

Unfortunately I didn’t learn about it in time to get a table, but that’s just as well since my wrists still haven’t healed fully, so I shouldn’t be spending all day drawing. If I’m still here in a year, I plan to have at least one Sister Claire book printed and ready to sell, along with all my illustrations which can be sold as prints and posters. =)
