living in a social media world...?

i realize that i post most of my art on various social media platforms (and have links to them on this website)...  but want to get better about curating my art and keeping things up to date on my personal website. i've updated the convention appearances, started with galleries highlighting the "just for me" concert posters and more, but there's PLENTY more to go...

also need to get better about updating the web store and selling art beyond convention appearances...

and even considering a mailing list to keep folks in the loop beyond the social media.

so much to do, so little time... bear with me (and any thought on what you'd like to see, drop a line!)

a Not AtAnyCon weekend

well, seems like it's gonna be one of those weekends... a NOT AT ANY CON sketch weekend! 

not sure how many of these i'll be doing in '19 (or the next time i'lll open the commissions list, so...)



email me@craigrousseau.com to get on the list, i'll be doing commissions over the weekend to ship out next week...

online and pre-show commissions

okay, after an amazing two weeks in the UK, it's back to the grind... and that includes CONVENTIONS (DRAGONCON in a few weeks and then BALTIMORE COMIC CON and RHODE ISLAND COMIC CON in november)

i've had a few emails about lining up pre-show commissions, so i figured a quick post would be easier... and if you're NOT going to any show and want some art, it's the same deal (just add $10 shipping)...

my current rates for 2018 are…

$40 b/w per head sketch ($50 grayscale) - (sketch on blank covers available for $10 - email me for a list)

$100 full figure b/w 9x12

$125 full figure color canson paper or grayscale marker 9x12*

$150 full figure watercolor or color marker* 9x12”

$250 11x17 b/w single figure full pinup or full figure color canson paper* (digital color extra)

$400 11x17” full commission (digital colors extra)

*traveling with pencils/markers/paper gets cumbersome, so i try and work on these at home and can't guarantee them at cons....

patreon...!

okay, so i'm slowly getting on board with the 21st century.

i've been posting a LOT of free art over the years... and figured,  maybe it was time to try and do something new... so...

hey, it's my patreon page!

sign up for s low as $1 a month to get access to all the art posts and ramblings...

$5 gets you downloadable monthly PDFs ... and higher pledges gets even more. (and a chance to win the monthly art raffle)...

who knows, you might even get to see new pages from upcoming creator owned stuff and more...

i'll continue to post art online elsewhere, but if you want access to it all first, here's the way to get it.

thanks!

NotAtAnyCon - ECCC2018

time to kick the dust off this blog and make a post... about the next NotAtAnyCon sketch weekend - ECCC2018 edition.

(not surprisingly, any full commission requests might take more time)

pretty straightforward - email me@craigrousseau.com to get on the list... (i'll cut the list when i think i won't get to any more sketches )

pmc 2017!

time flies... it's coming up on august 5 and this year's Pan Mass Challenge.

I'm a proud supporter of the PMC because it is leading a charge to beat cancer. In fact, last year 100% of rider-raised revenue went directly to support the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's tireless commitment to finding a cure.

this'll be my SIXTH year riding the PMC (after missing the ride in 2015)... and every year, i ride for friends and family, hoping that every dollar rasied will get us THAT much closer to finding a cure for cancer... so far, with YOUR help, i've raised just over $28,150 for the Jimmy Fund and Dana Farber.


since i don't have an employer (or co-workers) to hit up for donations, i'm asking YOU... friends, family, and friends to donate...

in years past, i've offered special prints and sketches for donations... and i'm doing it again!

this was SUPPOSED to be 2014's print, but it got lost in the shuffle (if you pledged and were hoping to get it back then, sorry! lemme know and i'll send it your way... ) ... so, it's all ready to go for 2017.

5.5x8.5" on fine art archival print paper, only available for a donation to the PMC.


make a $50 donation AND DROP ME AN EMAIL, and i'll send you this year's print (or any of the previous ones, if you prefer)...

make donation of $100 or more AND DROP ME AN EMAIL, get a print (your choice) AND a head sketch (your choice) OR a second print...

can't do this without you, so thank you.
