Pascal Nichols

Last but certainly not least, we are tres excited to announce Pascal Nichols (Manchester) will be stalling at Saturday's PRINTOMANIA! Pascal is a personal favourite of mine and rumour has it he is lobbying between the drawing desk and the printers to yield fresh produce for Saturday. Expect black ink intricacy, as if applied with sharpened stick, medieval future thinking and straight up mad skills.

Check out Pascal's site here!

Hannah Gibson

Salford University Illustration

Behold the second coming of the Salford University Illustration posse, a hundred arms and a hundred legs combine to offer a bevvy of printed matter from zines to prints to comics to cards and much besides. Steered by the immaculate illustration force that is Robert Shadbolt, these young up and comers will be sure to wow the crowds at Saturday's Printomania! 

Check out more of the Salford Illustration talent here!

Dylan Hughes and DBA

Very excited to announce that illustrators Dylan Hughes (Manchester) and DBA (Manchester) will be sharing a stall at Saturday's PRINTOMANIAAAA! 

Dylan Hughes is an all-conquering returning hero from the first Salford Zine Fair. If you don't know the legend then allow me to introduce Dylan. He's a print king, one of my personal favourite illustrators in Manchester right now. Expect layer-deep vibrant colours with immaculate lines and crude oddities. Prints so rare they defy editions, each is a beast unto it's own. Award-winning penmanship with a gift for humouring the viewer. All too essential that Dylan is at Printomania, he's a one-man print maniac.

DBA (Darren Brian Adcock) is a pen and ink wizard. We're super excited to have DBA aboard at Printomania as he's a prolific pen finger and this rare public appearance heralds a golden chance to get your hands on a black and white print of majestic intricacy. Lots are in the know about Darren's talents already but Saturday will project his prints from his desk to your wall, don't miss this opportunity!

OWT Creative

We are proud to announce OWT Creative will be stalling at this Saturday's PRINTOMANIA! All-conquering heroes from the first ever Salford Zine Fair return for our second event. If you don't know OWT then where have you been the past year or so? Super prolific North-West based collective who pump out a high-end zine each month with an unwavering attention to the fine details and fine production values. OWT reel in the best of the up and comers and come and get mes of the North West's creative output, be it design or illustration, photography or other. OWT have got it covered.
