Here are some belated photos from two art events that I went to in August - the
Art Walk in the Park in Central Square and the
In the Name of the Moon art show at
Hub Comics.
Art Walk in the Park was organized by
Tofusquirrel, who coordinated local artists for a small show in University Park. I got to see
Jonathan Reincke and Marc, whom I've befriended after loitering around their booths at Boston Comic Con over the years. I also had the delight of meeting
Christina Siravo, whose artwork was whimsical and retro and perfect - I would love to commission her for some artwork in the future ☆彡

The
In the Name of the Moon art show took place at at
Hub Comics and was organized by my friend and ComicsAlliance colleague
Juliet Kahn. In the same vein as Hub's annual Batman art show, In the Name of the Moon featured multimedia artwork inspired by Sailor Moon from local artists, including
Erica Henderson,
Joe Quinones, and more. The volume and diversity of the showcased artwork was amazing - I was particularly captivated by
Rhonda Ratray's Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask paintings in the style of Margaret Keane,
Christina Kelly's Moon Star Chart, and
Lisa Kurth's Moonlight Sensation LP. I really hope that Hub Comics holds another Sailor Moon event next year - I would love to submit something for the show.
