From now on my original art will be exclusively on sale by Rich DeDominicis, the owner of TheArtOfComics.com. So I guess this is good news for those of you were interested in owning original artwork by me. Rich will be handling sales for not only my entire Dynamo 5 work but also some of the other stuff I do too. In the future we might even set up a commissions page for special requests. The pages and prices will be up shortly, however, if you have a specific piece of art from me that you'd be interested in buying, feel free to contact Rich.

Rich represents some incredible talent such as Bryan Hitch and Trevor Hairsine. Check out the site here;

Hacettepe University

I've had the chance to attend a conference/panel/chat as a lecturer arranged by my friend Elif Varol Ergen in Hacettepe University where I've had the chance to share my comic book experiences with the students. I've really had a ton of fun and talked for a few good hours. This has been a cool experience on my part as I'm quite an introvert and shy especially in situations where I'm the center of attention in a crowd. So my thanks to my friend Elif and all the attending students for their interest.

Cheers!

Geçtiğimiz hafta Hacettepe Üniversitesi Grafik Bölümü öğrencileri ile arkadaşım Elif Varol Ergen'in daveti ve organizasyonu üzerine bir söyleşi düzenledik. Çizgi roman üretimi üzerine tecrübelerimden bahsedip fikir alış verişinde bulunduk. Kendi adıma çok keyifli bir vakit geçirdim ve benim için önemli bir tecrübe oldu. Beni davet ettiği için Elif'e ve katılım gösterdikleri için tüm öğrenci arkadaşlara ilgilerinden dolayı teşekkür ediyorum.

Sevgiler, selamlar.
