Welcome to Paris

[ben_templesmith]

Back in the studio now, after a great trip in Paris ( after starting in Vegas for the Diamond retailer summit, which was also great! ) Now back to trying to get up to speed with all the work...and more art to post here...

Paris was a blast. A special thanks to Thierry Mornet for organizing me being there for Delcourt, as well as Francois, Jeanne and

Now that you live in San Diego, go to the best! www.avalontattoo.com Either studio is wonderful, and they'll direct you to an artist with an appropriate style for whatever you want. Never had a bad experience there or know someone who has, ever.

Thanks I may check em out, though I'm really picky and want someone who literally paints on skin I guess.

Avalon has excellent artists, but if you want the really mind blowing stuff, you may have to wait in line.

Push comes to shove, really, you can ask around Avalon or any other reputable studio for recommendations. It's a small business, people are bound to know each other for a specific style (like any other type of art circle).

Anil is rather incredible though. The miniatures section will blow your head off.

first?

That was cool to see you

The last time you came, last November, I couldn't come because I just started to work.

This time, I took vaccation to see you^^
That was so cool. Merci encore.
I saw an interview you made for Comicsplace this week.

Oh and for the radio ad for Wormwood it was on Oui Fm, the only radio which make ad for comic-books.

I hope you will come back next year.

Ps: I read the first issue of Welcome to Hoxford and it kicks ass.
