Lat weekend I went to the London Illustration Fair.
I couldn't believe how inspirational it was! We spent hours there, wondering through the stalls and talking to various practitioners. I could have spent a fortune, but managed to restrain myself and only buy a few bits. One of my favourite illustrators was there, unfortunately he wasn't as the stall when I was there, but I did meet a man with whom he collaborates. Daniel Jamie Williams is the guy, and I got two of his zines.
I was also lucky enough to meet some of the Wrap magazine team, and got talking to them about Leeds college of art and our upcoming exhibition at colours may vary. They said that colours may vary are one of their best stockists, and we ended up having a really great chat, and they wished me luck in the future which I thought was lovely.
Got me thinking, the illustration gang should apply for a table there next year! There is so much talent in our class, and where better to showcase it than there?! I think I'll pitch it to the group next September, see if we can get something going. The amount of people there was crazy.
Ive looked into it a little, and here are their pricing's ...
Something to think about.
