Cartoon Network: Roman Klonek

Cartoon Network’s 20th Anniversary premieres at this year’s Comic-Con held in San Diego, July 12—15. A new mini magazine is in progress, design will feature studios, drawings and doodles by 75 world-class artists paired up with one classic Cartoon Network animated show and the creation of a mindful representation of something great.

This is a huge honor, and all of the featured artists are creating something spectacular.

The Artist Studio and Quick Tour : CN20Anniversary

One of the greatest privileges in my life has been to take time out (often) and visit artists’ studios all around the world. Books wall to wall, boxes of supplies, metal trays with years worth of dried paint dabs, libraries of books, curiosities, a who’s who of artist works, scraps of material, stacks of paintings/drawings/clippings/and just stacks of stuff.

“You get the idea, Right?” I love it. And to get you pumped up for the premier of Cartoon Network’s 20^th Anniversary Exhibition, to be unveiled at Comic-Con in San Diego July 12—15, 2012, I thought to share a picto-tour of some of the 75 artists featured. Save the date and more information shared soon. Enjoy. (Above, Karen Barbour)
