the art of Will Terrell

I had fun at the Abilene show yesterday hanging out with my friends from the Lubbock Sketchclub, and getting to hang with the Abilene SketchClub guys some too. Dinner was great! Other than that, it was a decent show, but I didn’t make much money at all. I was surprised actually. Just about everyone I talked to had the same experience. Lots of people showed, but very few spent money. It was probably because it was a charity event. I’m glad I went though.

I spent the last few hours doing this watercolor sketch of Spiderman and Venom. I think its a good rough sketch for a finished painting. Some of that anatomy is just really wonky on both characters. but I like some of the paint effects I was getting and I really want to try a full painting version.

I will be a guest at the Abilene Imagicon comic book/toy/car and bike show MARCH 28th from 10:00 – 3:00. If you are in that neck of the woods stop by.

If you didn’t get a chance to pick up the paper on Friday to read the article about the Sketch Club, they have it online for you to read. I feel lucky to have had the chance to actually DRAW the cover to this weeks “Go!” magazine Here is the link to the cover… http://willterrell.com/GO_cover_final_sm.jpg and the article is online at…. http://go.lubbockonline.com/arts/drawn-together-lubbock-sketch-club-at-first-friday-art-trail/

I want to thank Steve Wood, Brian Little and Brandon Adkins for putting together an amazing show. Also, to everyone in the Sketch Club that displayed their art, and created “silent panel” comics for everyone to draw on. They were a huge hit! And I really want to thank Mark and Leanne and Hard Tops for being such wonderful hosts. We are very blessed to be welcomed into their gallery each year. And we hope that we can continue to put on a great show. This years show “Sequential Possibilities” was fantastic. We broke the attendance records for the Hard Tops gallery. We had more than 700-750 visitors to the gallery. And its one of the busiest venue usually on the art trail. So it was good stuff.

There are some photos of the event on our Meetup.com page.

The Sequential Possibilities art show will be up till the end of the month. If you haven’t already, please go by Hard Tops on Buddy Holly ave to see our art!

I did an interview this week with the Lubbock newspaper about the Sketch Club and the art show we have this Friday on the First Friday art trail at the hard tops gallery. I am really stoked about our art show! Our artists did a great job getting it together. We’ve got a great group of artists showing their work, and we have some really fun stuff planned with the comics stuff. If you get a chance you need to come out! Hard tops is the best gallery on the Lubbock art trail. So don’t miss it!

Additionally… I was asked to do the cover to the “GO!” section since we’re the featured article. Here is what will be on the cover this Friday! Make sure to pick up your copy!

I am printing some new postcards for the comic book expo! They have more information on them now… and exciting blurbs and everything!  Lots of fun.  If you hadn’t heard the big news… the Comic Book expo is now part of the Lubbock arts festival!

Very exciting.  I think I might just go to this thing.
