I was invited by Jon and Amanda of iam8bit to participate in the DICE 2014 'Future Of Gaming' group show a The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV - February 2014.
All participating artists were given a quote to illustrate. Mine was a fun one from the Tim Schafer of Double Fine Productions..
"In the future, we will play games while floating naked in a tank of warm, sensory-depriving gelatin. Games will be distributed chemically, into the gelatin, and absorbed into the player's skin. The gelatin will be Lingonberry-flavored, and the games will encourage good citizenship." -Tim Schafer
