TODAY THE ROAD TO SURTEX BEGINS

The check is in the mail. I've officially decided to exhibit at Surtex 2008 in May in the big New York City. I'll be in booth 605 in the Galleria and River Pavilion on Level 4.

In addition to the signature ScoutDog Studios designs, I've decided that I want to expand in to other styles to hopefully make my art more appealing to companies to license my designs. I also want to do more illustration in 2008 and beyond so this will require pushing myself into other styles as well.

In order to explore other styles, I've decided to launch another brand so that I can keep moving forward with ScoutDog Studios and not confuse it by adding other styles. The new brand will be JennyBen Illustration. I will be working on new designs that will launch at the Surtex show. I will be developing a website and probably a blog. To start most of these designs with the goal of licensing them but down the road I might also manufacture my own products as well.

So this is just another step in making my business goals, dreams come through in 2008. And that means I better get to work!
