Come join us at the edge gallery, 611 main, after 7pm to sketch, craft, sew, write, draw digitally or traditionally, paint, play Sims(or what ever else strikes your fancy), it is a night where artists of all types come to chat with other artists in this chilly city of ours.
Hope to see you there!

Attention, artists! The Ai-Kon Mascot Contest is now open.

Ai-Kon looking for a new design for Aiko, the Ai-Kon mascot, for uses on the convention’s promotional materials and merchandise. Aiko appears on a variety of Ai-Kon promotional materials, including t-shirts, posters, flyers, badges, programs, and the Ai-Kon website.

This year’s theme is Monster Trainer Aiko.

Generally, Aiko is a cheerful, stylish, energetic anime girl with pink hair and blue eyes. Please keep the eye and hair colour but feel free to change the attitude to suit the theme.

What is a Monster Trainer? Monster trainers are the human characters present in simulation virtual pet games such as Monster Rancher and Digimon, as well as collection-based RPGs such as Pokemon. These trainers take it upon themselves to befriend, raise and train monster companions in order to fight in tournaments or to accompany the trainer on her quests and travels.

This theme will enable you lots of room to explore and be creative! Just please remember that Ai-Kon is a family friendly convention.

ABOUT AI-KON: Ai-Kon (www.ai-kon.org) is Manitoba's largest anime convention. An all-ages event, the goal of Ai-Kon is the promotion of Japanese/Asian animation and culture to the public. Started in 2001 by a local anime club, Ai-Kon took a reorganizing hiatus in 2002, returning in 2003 to become an autonomous event, run by an independent volunteer committee. "Ai" means "love" in Japanese, hence Ai-Kon's slogan "For the Love of Anime".

Anyone know of a good place here in the city to get artist prints made? I'd rather not go to Staples again after they botched my last order.

I'm not quite sure if you can do this without being a student, but the print shop at RRC in the Exchange District is probably the cheapest place to print in the whole city.  11x17 cardstock color cost me something like 0.50$ last time I printed there. They don't check for student ID so you might be able to just walk in and get it done regardless.

Hi,

I am an indie video game developer and I would like to collaborate with a local artist on a project for a game competition called Indie Speed Run. www.indiespeedrun.com It runs for the month of September. 

The competition assigns you a random theme for the game and then you have 48 hours to create your game. It will be judged by some of the best Indie Devs out there and there are cash prizes.

You can check out some of my games at: plutoniumpowered.com/games.htm

Message me if you are interested.

Chris.
