I'll be at the Auckland Zinefest which is in the Auckland Art Gallery this year. Gonna be a good one, come on down!
Sweet poster by Chippy Draws
I'll have copies of my new comic Takeaways, which I individually hand covered the covers of, can't handle too much consistency.
I'll be roadtripping down to the Hamilton Zinefest this year with my pal and partner in zine-crimes Millicent Crow. Come say hi! Buy a thing!
This was the day before, getting my tags up to date, taken from my instagram https://instagram.com/sophie_oiseau/
My stall set-up. I made a big cardboard Shorty to scare away buyers with her stare eyes. Photo from the Auckland Zinefest instagram https://instagram.com/aucklandzinefest/ there are also lots of photos from the day on the Auckland zinefest facebook page https://www.facebook.com/aklzinefest
aaand my Bad Thoughts zine won a prize!
I was on the organising committee for the Auckland Zinefest so got to design the poster. We wanted something which could be reproduced in black and white or just one colour. I went with this monster design as the zinefest is a strange beast!
Here is the same creature partying at the after party, this poster was just for online use so could have colours in it.
The poster image and text was reworked for this facebook event banner.
Then we printed it on tees and totebags
I've made some new zines for the zinefest as well as reprints of some older ones.
This one is about inappropriate thoughts.
This one is a follow up to Shorty visits the vet Issue #1 which I made last year. It's about my cat's cystitis. The last one was all done in ink but this time I went digital. I don't do fully digital work that often but I found it really ...addictive.
I'm on the organising committee for the Auckland Zinefest, as such I get to design the poster. It needed to be something that we could print in just one colour, but for the digital poster I added some more colour.
Last year we had such a good turn out even though it was tucked away off K rd at the Old Folk's Ass. We reckon it'll be even bigger this year at the more centrally located Pitt St Methodist Church. If you want to be involved whether doing a talk or workshop, having a stall or just helping out on the day visit aucklandzinefest.org/ for all the deets.
