Stumptown Comics Festival

Posted on Apr 24, 2012 in Events, Illustration

I will have a table at the Stumptown Comics Festival this coming weekend in Portland, OR. In addition to copies of some of my older wares, I will be debuting The Penultimate Compendium of Miscellaneous Millinery. This limited edition hardcover book contains illustrations of various characters wearing hats as seen from behind. In addition to the drawings seen in Haberdash Vol.’s 1 & 2, this collection contains 14 never-before-seen portraits.

Each book was hand-bound and lovingly crafted by Your Humble Author. They measure 4.5″ x 6″ with 70 hand cut pages (via bone folder). My inspiration for style came from the novellettes and memoirs published in the early 1900s — an effect I think I achieved! Any copies I don’t sell at Stumptown I will make available on Etsy in the coming weeks.
