Dragon*Con badge full artwork and cover to "The Art of George Perez"
posted Sep 10, 2011 10:13 AM by vu sleeper
From George Pérez Fan Page
Now
that Dragon*Con has passed, I can finally show the art I did for the
25th Anniversary badges. This was inspired by my beautiful wife
Phoenicia Flynn, who was also the model for the belly dancer assassin
Phoenicia in WALLY WOOD'S T.H.U.N.D.E.R. AGENTS. I am so proud of this
piece that I've decided to use it as the cover for THE ART OF GEORGE
PEREZ, coming out in 2012.

DRAGON*CON 2011 (02-05 Sep 2011) - Atlanta, Georgia
From the recent DRAGON*CON 2011 (02-05 Sep 2011), is this the first ever George Perez costume cosplayer?
On the left is George Perez, on the right is Jim H:

Which one is which?
Me (on R) cosplaying George Perez (on L). His niece (C) is confused as
to which one is her uncle. Hah!! It's stuff like this that makes life
worth living!! And is made of "win." :-D

The Penguin sketch at Dragon*Con 2011

DRAGON*CON 2011 (02-05 Sep 2011) - Atlanta, Georgia
George, being a terrific guy, always does these great $25 head sketches
at the Hero Initiative booth. This year (Dragoncon 2011) I gave him my
Bat-themed sketchbook and told him to pick anyone he liked. He said "You
might be surprised who I pick..." and proceeded to knock out this
terrific Penguin! Love the Bat shape in the smoke and the little penguin
next to his name. He said he added that in case anyone couldn't tell
who it was supposed to be. As if! George continues to be one of the
greats as well as a perfect gentleman, and I'm delighted to have him in
my book!

From George Pérez
DRAGON*CON 2011 (02-05 Sep 2011)
My Dragon*Con
schedule is now set. I will be doing sketches and autographing books to
raise money for the Hero Initiative at the following times:
Friday: 3:30-5:30 (with Rosalind Friday)
Saturday: 10:30-12:30
Sunday: 12:30-12:30 & 6:30-8
Monday: 12:30-2:30
Due to limited booth time, I will only be drawing quickie head sketches
at $25 apiece instead of my usual lottery method for more finished
sketches. This will be on a first come, first served basis, so get to me
as soon as possible. I will be limiting my sketches to one per customer
in line. You can, however get back on the line if you want to try to
get another. (Autographs are free, although I will request a donation if
you have more than five books to sign.)
I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of my fans there.

George Perez to attend Dragon*Con 2011
posted Jul 18, 2011 4:49 PM by vu sleeper
From George Pérez
DRAGON*CON 2011 (02-05 Sep 2011)
Just submitted
the badge art for this year's Dragon*Con (celebrating its 25th year!)
and I'm proud to say that the organizer Pat Henry loved it!.
Unfortunately, due to fears of counterfeiting, I can't post the art here
or anywhere until after the convention ends on Sept. 5th, so Dragon*Con
attendees will get to see it first at the show.
