RSS: TLC Xpress for studentsWho is Katie Houghton-Ward? It’s a good question. She is an animated personality and she is a woman comic artist, in a medium that’s heavily populated by men. For two years in a row Katie made a pilgrimage to the Comic Con in San Diego USA. We asked her some pressing questions about the Comic con and her practice as a comic artist.
One of the fears of beginning artists is that others will steal their ideas. At TLC exhibitions there are stern signs saying NO PHOTOGRAPHY. I assume that there is a worry that people might use images to make money at the expense of the artist.
TLC tutor Sharon Hall won ‘Best Emerging Artist’ award in the recent Kapiti-Horowhenua Annual Art Review, held at Mahara Gallery.
TLC talks to Anne-Marie Jean in a video interview about her creative process, her painting style and some of the challenges around exhibiting her work.
