I haven't had many moments to stop and process last month's Illuxcon. Just over one month ago I was still unpacking from returning, dizzy from a weekend of inspiration, challenge and fun and with no time to consider what had just happened as deadlines were pulling me by the ear, directing me straight back to work. In fact, I think all the last month's blog posts were pre-written some weeks before. So let me take a moment here to talk about Illuxcon 2011.
Yes, 2011. Barely one month out and plans have begun rolling out for next year's show. If you are a collector of original fantasy artwork or are one of those who buys product primarily for the artwork, this is the show you need to go to. If you're an illustrator looking to get onto the main floor, one of the best ways seems to be through the "Spotlight" overflow-sideshow, whose tables are already more than half sold-out as I write this. And, tickets are already on sale for the show itself. The reason I'm goading you now about it is because the tickets are quite limited and will sell out well before the show starts.
It's an honor to be part of this show, limited in space and packed to the gills with talent. Additionally, starting with 2011, the spots for the main floor were juried, which means that it was that much harder to secure space. I am pleased to announce that I will once again be at Illuxcon 2011, which is Nov. 3-6. That's a long ways away, but you'd be surprised how fast it creeps up.
