Description

At Heroes Con 2025 we stopped by Sean Carlson�s booth. While flipping through his portfolio, saw a pencil drawing of Nova - one of my favorite Marvel characters and my favorite version of the character. Loved it and had to have it (see additional image).

Flipping through the portfolio saw a color print of the same figure and asked if the drawing was a prelim for a painting - it was and he still had it, but not at the show. There was a photo of it on his Instagram (seancarlsonart) - I said I�d follow up after the show to ask about it purchasing it.

I did it follow up and asked to buy it. Even better, Sean was going to be passing through the town where I live on the way to another convention and he generously agreed to drop it off in person. (If you haven�t met him, stop by his booth at a con - one of the nicest people I�ve met at a con.)

Hard to capture the colors accurately in a photo (took photos in 3 different apps and every one changes the color slightly - more purple, more pink, less gloss, etc.).
