Beginning to End: A Creative Process Conversation

May 24 @ 1:00 pm2:00 pm EDT
A graphic announcing "Beginning to End: A Creative Process Conversation" for the Nib and Ink Fest 2025 on May 24th, 2025 at 1:00PM EST on Zoom featuring panelists Ashanti Fortson, Blue Delliguanti, Jasmine Walls, and Kody Okamoto with moderator Jessi Eoin. The panel description reads, "Whether it's for a webcomic, a self-published mini comic, a traditionally published graphic novel, or otherwise, each comic project has its own needs to meet its final form, and every comic creator has their own way of responding to that puzzle with their own creative process. Join our esteemed Cartoonist Co-op members Kody Okamoto (KEEPING TIME, RUBBER MATCH, DEMON BOY), Jasmine Walls (BROOMS, THE LAST SESSION, VIXEN: NYC), Blue Delliquanti (O HUMAN STAR, ADVERSARY, ACROSS A FIELD OF STARLIGHT), and Ashanti Fortson (LEAF LACE, THE HUE OF HEAVEN, SMALLNESS) as they discuss their own creative processes and how they approach new projects with fellow Co-op member and moderator Jessi Eoin (A LONG EVICTION, STARVED, NEW GARDEN). This event is suitable for comic creators of all experience levels and will include a Q+A with our panelists at the end." An anthropomorphic inkwell and an anthropomorphic nib pen both holding comic pages decorate the graphic.
