I\u2019ll be featured in the Art Show at the Hyatt Regency, with a full art display plus art books, prints and limited edition sets for sale. You can find me at a table in front of my display for at least a few hours each day. Hours will be posted once I get there. I\u2019m not bringing a ton of extra merchandise, so please be sure to visit the Art Show early.\n<p>For all fans of Dan Simmons\u2019 DROOD \u2014 amongst my various originals and prints on display, I\u2019ll have a 44\u2033 x 60\u2033 vinyl banner for sale featuring <a href=\"http:\/\/www.johnpicacio.com\/blogpics\/DROOD111lowres.jpg\">the DROOD limited edition artwork<\/a>. I have only one, but for a mere $100, it can be yours if you\u2019re the first to snag it at Dragon*Con. I\u2019ll also have Elric prints &amp; originals plus plenty of other works.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, here\u2019s my appearance schedule when outside the Art Show. I\u2019m especially excited about the Sunday 11:30am panel \u201cThe Good, The Bad, and The Ugly\u201d because we\u2019ll be talking book cover art with Irene Gallo, Lou Anders, Mike Resnick, Mary Robinette Kowal, and Jim Butcher. Dragon*Con is expecting a large crowd for that one, so you might want to get there a few minutes early for best seating.<\/p>\n<p>From what I gather, Dragon*Con is a huge place. I\u2019ll be around. If you see me, don\u2019t be a stranger.
