Another post about Fan Expo. I kind of went nuts on the prints.

The bottom 4 are from the same artist, JParrot Illustrations. He gave me his business card, but the website is giving me a 404 error. I had to have the Space Mom ones for obvious reasons. He had a really nice collage of her, but it was way more expensive. I was torn between the bottom two, but he cut me a really nice deal. 

The first one was from a guy who didn’t give me his card but I struck up a conversation with him. The print I bought was the only original work he had. Everything else was fan art. He had one of Black Panther I kind of liked but I like the one I bought better. The one of the unicorn I dug because fire unicorn, plus I liked that it was an original piece, but what clinched it was when he told me about the spaceship in the background. I hadn’t even noticed it until he pointed it out. Then he told me that it’s the spaceship from Flight of the Navigator. I asked him if I’d heard him right. His buddy thought I didn’t know the movie and told me it was a movie from the 80s. (Thanks guy. I’m aware.)

I said, “No you don’t understand. I’m here to see Paul Reubens. He was the voice of that spaceship.”

Of all the spaceships in all of Sci Fi this artist had happened to choose the one voiced by the guy I was there to see. I had to have it. I told him it was meant to be.

Now I need to buy frames. A lot of frames.
