Art Spotlight: MoCCA Fest Edition

This month's Art Spotlight is featuring some of the amazing artists that I met at MoCCA Fest this past weekend. These are only a few of the talented artists in attendance at MoCCA, but they truly made an impact on me.

This is Classic Hollywood Monsters from a fellow volunteer, Savark Dicupe. I wish I had realized how talented he was when I was working with him; I would have pressed him for more art to post!

Amy Lynn Duengfelder makes amazing jewelry, which I purchased at MoCCA, but she also creates great, happy, twisted artwork like this Ice Cream Cone.

Remember that guy who asked me about caffeine? Well, he is actually Greg Houston, creator of Vatican Hustle and Elephant Man from NBM. After going through his site, this Electric Tree kept appearing on my screen. Just love it!

Justin Peterson, creator of Very Near Mint, had a lot of fantastic work out at MoCCA, but this just stood out on his website. Who doesn't love some Doc Brown?

Art Spotlight

As you can see, I'm no artist (Microsoft Paint is my medium). However, I am frequently jealous of artists who can create beautiful works. At conventions, I spend a ridiculous amount of time wandering through Artist Alley, looking at everything displayed and chatting up the creator. Since everyday I see some wonderful piece of art posted online, I decided to share that creativity with you. I plan on this being a monthly piece for now.

This is one of the few times it's OK to judge a book by its cover. The intensity of this matches the Savior 28 story exactly and is a great way for this series to start. This cover, drawn by Mike Cavallaro, is one of my favorite pieces of comic art, not to mention one of my favorite books.



This is a Batgirl that was drawn by Mike Maihack during a meeting. If he keeps turning out awesome art like this, I want him in more meetings like that!



The best part of working at IGN? Getting to see Jim Mahfood's Geek Crossover mural, of course. This is just a small portion of its awesomeness, and you can see more of it here. Yes, I have a soft spot for Robocop.
