GEN CON THIS WEEK!

After two years, I return to Gen Con this week and finally get to be one of the three featured artists. That honor was to be ours in 2020 and was going to coincide with the release of my book. And then the world fell apart. Now, after what feels like a lifetime, it is finally happening. The book, art, prints, pins, and a few surprises are coming with me as The Grand Bazaar of Ethra VanDalia takes over the artist alley. Look for the red walls, and you can't miss me. Oh, look! A handy dandy map of the art show.

Find me at Gen Con Art Show in booth 39!

I will have everything I can bring with me that relates to the world of the Grand Bazaar. This includes just finished art and a few special convention exclusives.

Be sure not to miss out on the con-exclusive tote bag!

Be sure to pick up a con-exclusive badge ribbon!

I hope to see you there! I am so excited to finally share my world with everyone at Gen Con. It has been a massive success at the other conventions I have done this year, and I am excitedly nervous to see how it is received at Gen Con.

The best four days of gaming await us!

For those unable to attend, I will take as many photos as possible and share all the details with you after I am home and rested. It is sure to be a crazy time, and I will likely be exhausted by the end of it.

That's all for another exciting Monday on the blog. See you back here after Gen Con! Until then...

Coming to Gen Con 2022 - The Grand Bazaar of Ethra VanDalia Badge Ribbons!

I am happy to share another surprise I have in store for Gen Con 2022 in August. You can check out the first surprise that I already shared. I present to you with the Grand Bazaar of Ethra VanDalia badge ribbon that you will be able to obtain for free with any purchase!

The Grand Bazaar of Ethra VanDalia Badge Ribbon will be available at Gen Con 2022!

If you know Gen Con, then you will know how big badge ribbons are there. You get them from playing Catan, you get them to announce or orientation, or if you are an alley, you get them just about anywhere at the convention. I have seen attendees with badge ribbons stretching to the floor, only for them to have started a second row. I have gotten them, and I think they are a really neat convention-specific item. They were also the first item I wanted to get made for Gen Con back in 2020 when I was initially going to be a Featured Artist. As COVID spread and it became clear that GC would not happen in 2020, I shelved the idea and forgot all about it. A month ago, I remembered that I wanted to have ribbons for the convention and rushed to make it a reality. They have arrived with time to spare, and I can not be happier.

Be sure to stop by artist alley booth 39 for all your Grand Bazaar needs! You can get the tote bags and badge ribbons for FREE with purchases. I hope to see you there as we inch ever closer.

That's all for another exciting Wednesday on the blog. See you back here on Friday! Until then...
