Hello to all my friends and fans here on DeviantArt!
I just wanted to take a minute to tell you guys about something cool I'm doing right now at Meltdown Comics in Los Angeles.
It's called "Lost Angeles: 35 Days with Kevin Eastman"
It's an Art Exhibition that showcases the last 35 years or so of my career. From the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, to Heavy Metal Magazine...It's all there for you guys to come check out and immerse yourselves in. I try to be there as often as I can so if you come by, there is a pretty good chance that you can catch me there. You never know who else might show up too! Just today, my friend Greg Cipes who is the voice of Mikey in the new Nickelodeon show came by to chat.
Now here is something special that I am doing just because I love you DeviantArt fans so much! Over the next few days, I am going to be scouring DA for great Turtles pieces. I'm going to load them all into a favorites folder, and then we are going to Project your art on the wall of the gallery! How cool is that! So keep an eye open for that when you're at the show!
Also at the show is a GIANT mural that Mark Bode and I have painted, recreating the cover art of Ninja Turtles #1 on the back of Meltdown! It turned out crazy awesome!
The show is open just about every day from now till January 4th and keeps the same hours as Meltdown does, but every Wednesday from 6pm to 10pm we have special openings that zero in on some of the coolest things to have sprung out of my brain!
