Society of Illustrators Student Competition.

I am incredibly pleased to announce that my "London 2012 Olympics Aquatics Poster" has been selected to be in the Society of Illustrators student exhibition! I am very honored to be featured alongside so many talented friends and colleagues!

Sailor Moon Art Zine Kickstarter.

So you probably remember this piece I made for the Sailor Moon art zine "Moon Power" in October! Well, the Kickstarter to produce the zine was launched this past Saturday (March 16th) and managed to surpass its goal of $5,000 in less than 24 hours! If you can, please help support the production of this awesome illustration collection! You can check out the campaign and the pledge rates/rewards here! 

The Kickstarter has been paused due to an intellectual property dispute. I will update this post with any news regarding any change in status.

Unfortunately, the Moon Power Kickstarter had to be cancelled due to an intellectual property dispute. You can still help support the production of the zine by buying a sticker set/digital zine/pre-ordering, or you can donate- see the blog for a Paypal link!

More bad news- the online donations/orders/pre-orders had to be shut down as well. The printed zine will still debut at TCAF on May 11th-12th, but I am not sure how any further distribution past that will be allowed. I will continue to update this post with any news regarding the zine.

The zine can be purchased at:
TCAF: Toronto, Canada. May 11th-12th
VANCAF - Vancouver, British Columbia. May 25th-26th
CAKE - Chicago, Illinois. June 15th-16th
SPX - Bethesda, Maryland. September 14th-15th

A digital copy of the zine may be released for free in the near future.

Dinosaurs.

I've always been a huge fan of dinosaurs (I even planned on being a paleontologist at one point in my life). They are incredibly fascinating to me, and I had been meaning to draw some for a while. So when I found out I was accepted into the Light Grey Art Lab's newest show, Beautiful Forever, I knew exactly what I wanted to make temporary tattoos of. The dinosaurs featured are the Parasaurolophus and the Tyrannosaurus, two incredibly cool creatures (and some of my favorites)!

You can see the online gallery of all of the awesome illustrations featured in this show here, and if you are like me and can't make it to the opening, don't worry! These temporary tattoos can be purchased online here! If you buy mine, I'd love to have a photo of you sporting your prehistoric tats- send links/photos to kristenacampora@gmail.com!
