Anime Expo 2006

— Thursday, July 6, 2006

Back from the long holiday weekend, which I spent at the Anime Expo in Anaheim, CA. The entire time, I was mostly hanging out with friends and sketching. Here are the highlights.

Day One

Registration took something like 3 1/2 hours, and I was pretty much sketching people the entire time. Many of these people are dressed up in costumes for characters I don’t recognize.


Check out those two with their arms around each other. If you look back at page one, I drew them once, way at the beginning. Then about an hour later, when the line started doubling back on itself, there they were again, still all over each other. I think they were more into each other than anyone’s ever been into anything.

Day Two



We were just sitting around in the Hilton lobby when we overheard these Metal Gear Solid cosplayers ranting about not being allowed to walk around with their weapons, and I just started writing down as much of it as I could.

Day Three

Day Four

About the Artist

My name is Zachary Knoles, and this is my work. I'm an independent artist living and working in the SF Bay Area. I paint mostly figurative pieces with a stylized-representational look to them. I also make animated films.

Buying Original Art

Many of my paintings are available for purchase through my Etsy store. Prices range from $500 to as low as $50. If you see a piece you're interested in that isn't currently for sale, let me know! I'm happy to work something out if I can.
