I guess it had to happen. Issue 25 was the last one in my six year adventure with ATC Quarterly, a zine I produced out of my house and mailed around the countryside and to the other side of the world too. It's been a hoot and I've been in contact with so many interesting artists who helped inspire me along the way. So long ATC Quarterly. It's been a slice!
It's hard to believe that ATC Quarterly is in its sixth year! Here's the spring 2011 issue which is in the mail right now, wending its way to all its happy subscribers. Enjoy!
The latest issue of ATC Quarterly is in the mail. This issue was subtitled "And now for something completely different." It is full of triptychs -- 3 artist trading cards done by one artist -- and that's it! Other than the fabulous centre spread challenge, with the theme of cows, the whole issue is one big pile of eye candy. Please let me know what you think of it.

Don't forget! Only one week to go till the deadline for our centrespread challenge. The theme is COWS and the ATC will appear in ATC Quarterly.
