Thought Bubble 2019 & Aviation Art
The Thought Bubble convention was held 9 - 10 November, 2019 at its new home at the Harrogate Convention Centre. Ian had a great time at his table - selling art and prints and chatting to fans. The DC Thomson stand was nearby selling the new Art of Book, which was going down well.(Walking Dead artist Charlie Adlard pictured picking up a copy!)
Amongst the items he brought with him was a folder of his charcoal aviation sketches which I thought it would be fun to share. These are done in a "widescreen" format on hard art board on sale at £65 each. Some are still available and if you would be interested in picking one up before his next appearance you can get in contact via www.iankennedyart.co.uk or iankennedyart@gmail.com
Apologies for the sheen on some of these - they were taken quickly while still in the portfolio.
