News & Updates from Grendel's Den Design Studio

After much nagging from many of my beloved fans (you know who you are, ya lovable scamps), I made a last ditch effort to get my sorry ass into the vendor's room for next weekend's SalonCon... which panned out. Yes lords and ladies (or in my case hooligans and harlots) Grendel's Den Design Studio will be attending SalonCon, spooking the joint up.

For those of you not in the know, SalonCon is a gathering of folks who do what we oldsters call 'Steampunk'. Lots of you young'ns like to call it 'Neo-Victorian' or yeah, Steampunk. Right. In any case it's a pretty swank affair at a pretty swank price (25 shells if you nab them online by tomorrow, 35 bucks at the door). Check out the website for the shindig's schedule, which include a performance from Abeny Park.

See you there!

I just added a slew of new logo designs and print designs. You can view them in the Portfolio page. I also updated the list of upcoming appearances and added a list of events that Grendel's Den Design Studio is sponsoring:

Just uploaded a new piece entitled READ YOUR FEARS, which you can check out to the right. The piece was done as a cover for the newly released book 'Read Your Fears' from Tricorner Publishing. The book sales will benefit the charity Scares That Care which will donate the proceeds to the Johns Hopkins Children's Cancer Center. You can grab you copy in the Store section of this site.


There's also two new sites designed and hosted site by Grendel's Den Design Studio:

Clark Park Music and Arts Fest, which is a concert series in West Philadelphia.

Philly Pirate Cruise, which is a Halloween event when folks dress like pirates and cruise up and down the Delaware River on the Capt. Lucky.


And on the convention front Grendel's Den Design Studio will indeed be at next month's HorrorFind Weekend! Not only will I be participating and assist in running the art show, but I will also be one of the guest panelists as well. HorrorFind Weekend takes place the 15th, 16th and 17th of August.

This Saturday Grendel's Den Design Studio be attending Jeff Mach's The Totally Normal Event, a benefit show for the SPARC Summer Experience which is a summer program for gifted youth combining elements of summer camp with the multilevel benefits of rigorous academic achievement.

The event includes a tun of performers like The Dresden Dolls, Freezepop, The White Elephant Burlesque Society, The Mighty Mike Saga, Voltaire and many more, as well as vendors and artists, movies, panels and a large interactive story you can participate in throughout the event.

I'll be one of the panelists for "Genius At Work: Multidisciplinary creators talk about the creative process, their work, and what it's like to try to be a professional creator." which takes place at 8:00 pm in the Council Room.
