I cannot begin to tell you about how much I am looking forward to this. I am taking off work early to get there in time and will bring some books in hopes that I can get them autographed =)
Also, if you need someone to pick you up from the airport, I volunteer for that!
Thanks, Tyler, it will be great to meet you and everyone, and thanks for the offer to pick us up. We'll be driving over from LA, taking old roads through the desert.
Yes, bring your other books. I'll be glad to sign them.
Bill, someday I hope to make it up to Idaho. Hopefully with a sketchbook!
SVSART. Watch out! I'm lethal with that brush. Also I'm dangerous with a cup of tea.
I am SO jealous of Phoenix's AI. Is there any way we can petition/request/plead for you to come to San Diego's Art Institute? :D I'll bake a cake! or THREE!
I'm a student attempting to become a concept artist (picked the hardest position/profession in the video game industry) and I KNOW we can use some serious illustration expert love (that sounds... inappropriate...)
Hi, Kim, sorry I can't make it to AI SD, but maybe you can come up to Jeff Watt's Atelier in Encinitas on Friday, where I'll be giving a couple of in-depth presentations.

On my birthday. Wish I could be there. I know you feel Boise and the blue turf beckoning. Someday we'll get to meet.
