Farel Dalrymple | illustrations and comics

okay i am trying this again. i deleted this post last night after having some image viewing problems. let me know if everything is looking ok people. after some crazy issues i have this temporary thing set up as a website. i am trying out some new wordpress looks and hopefully will settle settle on something soon. if anyone wants to see my art portfolio i put it on my flicker account . i’ll be updating that with new drawing and wrenchies pages periodically. and in the next few days or weeks i am going to set up an etsy store or something that i can sell some art and comics on. but all of my comic pages will still be sold through the finest shop in canada, the beguiling.

i am pretty excited about this. i did a ten-page story that features the girls from my myspace dark horse presents comic, and my vice magazine comic strip, and bird hurdler story and possibly in a future issue of studygroup12. i think the book looks great. greg means did a smashing job as editor and publisher. i love the paper he uses and the whole look of the book. here is the cool front cover by nate beaty

dave roche and nate beaty did the excellent main story in the book. i could relate to it having taken some long train trips myself. and i thought it was pretty hilarious and enjoyable. nate beaty is also the regular artist of the inside covers of papercutter. there is also a one pager in this ishsue by the spectacularjim rugg and brian maruca. it is one of the my favorite anthologies and i am pretty excited to be a part of it.

another thing that i am pretty psyched for is the COMICS AT THE CROSSROADS: ART OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL exhibition at the MARYHILL MUSEUM OF ART  the postcard is by the superb Jim Woodring. the show goes from September 18 – November 15, 2010. most likely i will be at the opening reception which is on the 18th from 1 to 5 pm. i have never been to this museum before but i have heard it is really cool. i just need to find a ride out to the thing. i think it is like a two hour drive from portland in Goldendale, Washington.

i have heard tell that the conan pin-up i did will be in conan the cimmerian #25. i don’t think that is coming out until october. but GEOF DARROW is doing the Conan the Cimmerian #25 wraparound cover! there is also going to be a bunch of pinups from radical dudes like Jeffrey Brown, Dean Haspiel, Zack Soto, and Dan Hipp.

then there is the best american comics 2010 edition which is coming out this month. i haven’t seen the book yet but i think there are some omega pages in there. Neil Gaiman is the Editor on this one, as well as the regular editors Jessica Abeland Matt Madden. thanks for reading on the computer. be seeing you.
