Dawn McTeigue at Fan Expo 2024

FanExpo returns to Chicago tomorrow. The wait is soon over!

As usual, there are a lot of big name celebrities set to appear. Ewan McGregor, Paul Reiser, Helen Hunt and John Cena are just a handful of the stars.

While I enjoy seeing them, I spend more time in Artist Alley. One of my favorite creators is Dawn McTeigue.

After seeing her artwork many years ago, I checked out her website and was even more impressed. In addition to a lot more of her art, some of her text made me smile.

She uses her maiden name of McTeigue, because it's not as common as her married name. I appreciate that marketing thought. She also included the proper pronunciation of her last name as "McTeg," although she doesn't seem to be bothered by the long "E" alternative. She also lists a lot of other info, which I found equally interesting.

While I do not see McTeigue listed for Artist Alley, I still hope she is there. Sometimes the website list lags behind reality.

For more info on FanExpo go to fanexpohq.com. Go to dawnmcteigue.com to see all of her fantastic art. Also, check here for my recurring coverage.
