Paul Guinan put up a page of snapshots from last week’s San Diego Comic-Con. We like the pic of Diana Schutz with Dave Stevens’ posthumous birthday cake on her face!

Sure, you’ve always suspected Paul Guinan of having the widest-ranging talent of anyone you know… but now, here’s proof!

During the First Thursday gallery gala for June, Paul will display a one-man exhibition of works in a variety of media–from paintings on canvas, to traditional photography, to ink drawings. Also on display will be the digital art that Paul calls “Paintography,” and even some homemade toys.

This is a truly unique event, with rarely viewed original art and previously unseen work.  Not quite a retrospective, but certainly the most comprehensive show Paul has ever mounted.  It’s not to be missed! At the opening will be Anina Bennett, who will present the public debut of Paul’s nude portrait of her.  How’s that for a little interest-piquing teaser?!
