COMIC BOOK ARTISTS/GRAPHIC NOVELISTS, et al

Dear Comic Book Artist who sent me a message asking about where you can get funding to do your projects: I can't find your message anywhere! So sorry! I must have accidentally deleted it. Anyway, I just remembered your question and wanted to let you know that there is one place that funds comic book art projects: http://www.xericfoundation.org. The deadline is usually in September I think. Hopefully in time there will be other grants for this great art form. You can also apply for artist residencies, etc. and if you are in the US, when state arts council grant deadlines come up, I would ask if comic book artists can apply or check their guidelines. I think you will see more and more foundations and arts councils opening up to this under-appreciated art form. Anyway, I had you on my mind so I thought I'd do a quick post before I forgot.
Cheers,
m
