Illuxcon Photos

I did a terrible job of taking pictures at Illuxcon but here are a few. First a turkey that blocked the road on our way there (below):Michael Whelan was pretty much a blur during the demo. He started 5 or 6 paintings (below):Here's Matt Stewart at work (below):Michael adding a detail to a painting Bob started (below):Bob Eggleton strikes an artistic pose (below):David Lee Anderson, great artist and friend, and, my wife, Andrea (below):
Matt Cavotta and Daren Bader who I met for the first time at Illuxcon. I don't remember taking this. That's my display behind them on the left and Lars Grant-West's on the right of the column (below):Mark Zug's last name may bring him up last a lot but his art is first rate (his display is behind him)- below:My silly friends who do seriously fantastic art, Omar and Sheila Rayyan, listing to the side with their art directly behind them (below):You can see much better pictures of the convention by searching 'Illuxcon Photos' in Google. Bob Eggleton, Boris and Julie Bell, Tor.com and others took pictures and posted them.
And late edition, the masterful watercolorist Gary Lippincott (below):
