How do I find comic book artist?
I'm putting up a gallery show of comic Book Art to coincide with a play I'm producing about the comic book industry. I need artist to show in the gallery and to provide props for the show. Anyone know where I can find some?
Heads up to the above answer. She is correct as far as she goes. However the number and industry of the "people who do comics" is so large I have to ask you a question, if you want to succeed. How do you define a comic book artist? I see an awful lot of locally produced books here in New Hampshire and I'm always hearing about people who do work for the community and seeing their posters. If you mean people who work for the big media firms, then she's complete and I wish you luck, but if you are producing this play then chances are you are working in the regional media and you should support it. Go to local comic book stores, bring flyers about your play and your comic book show and explain who you are. DO NOT be afraid of scaring off pros in the sense mentioned above. Most came out of one or more fandoms, and remain active members of the groups they come from. In addition, people are passing in and out of the big media companies all the time, so chances are there is someone who used to work for them in your area.
But beyond the above answer I have to say support regional media.
EDIT: Forgot, many artists use the web. In addition visit reuben.org. But many artists use the web and have contact information. And the National Cartoonists society can help with those who are not so connected.
