Meet Marty Grabstein: Marty’s performance of the legendary cartoon character Courage in Courage the Cowardly Dog has thrilled the hearts and minds of countless fans (young and old) over the last 24 years since it debuted on Cartoon Network in 1999 (it continues to air today on Boomerang and HBO Max). Courage (still voiced by Marty) has recently been revitalized by the 2021 WB release of Straight Out of Nowhere-a feature film crossover event where Courage meets the Scooby Doo clan and battle the forces of evil together! It is currently available for purchase and streaming on HBO MAX... Marty's career has also included work in independent films, television series, live sketch comedy, theater and commercials. His indie film credits include Bury The Evidence, Apartment #5C, A Cat'sTale(winner of Best Ensemble Acting at the SF Film Festival); and most recently he produced and starred in a short film where he plays the legendary rebel journalist, Hunter S. Thompson which is currently burningup the film festival circuit! His television credits include parts on all three Law & Order series, Third Watch, Conviction, and most recently the hit show Blacklist. Marty absolutely loves meeting and connecting with his fans armed with his trademark frenetic energywhich is as intense at the end of the day as at the beginning! ~Signing All 3 Days!
Meet Nationally Recognized Artist Nastiya Grushovenko: An amazing self taught watercolor and oil artist. Born in Ukraine, she obtained her bachelor's degree in interior design before relocating to the USA when she was 21. Shortly thereafter, Nastiya mentored under nationally acclaimed oil painter Christopher Clark. Nastiya's parents, who are also artists, sparked her interest in painting when she was a child and she has been exploring various painting techniques since the age of 10. Nastiya's paintings have been exhibited in galleries, and art shows nationally and internationally and has brought both a wonderfully fun parody and grunge/realistic artistic perspective of characters from anime, Lord of the Rings, Disney, Harry Potter, horror & more. Nastiya has also worked on a number of public art installations in various locations throughout the USA. Nastiya will be attending all 3 days, adding paint highlights/embellishments to canvases purchased at the event at no additional charge.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ):
WHY ARE THERE MULTIPLE EVENTS DISPLAYING A SIMILAR EVENT WITH THE SAME DATES AND LOCATION? These are all the same event! We are limited in the amount of characters we can type in an event title. Since our event encompasses: Anime, Game, Horror, Marvel, DC, Disney, Star Wars, Alice in Wonderland, Harry Potter & Lord of the Rings, this is simply too long to put into an event title. To make it easier and in order to reach fans of each theme, we have created separate events for these themes but keep in mind, it is all the same event.
THIS EVENT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. HOW DO I KNOW THIS IS A LEGITIMATE EVENT? We encourage you to Google us at "amazing art expo" where you will see many updates, reviews, etc. We have over 51,000 followers on Facebook, 21,000 on Instagram and have been in business since 2016. We have hosted over 100 events during that time.

IS THERE ANY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) ART AT THIS EVENT? Absolutely NOT! All our art sold on our website and featured at our show was created by human hands and all made in the USA. We do not believe A.I. art is actually art and we stay firm with that decision.

However, Due to encounters of theft, attempts in converting the art via A.I. and/or unauthorized reproduction (bootlegging) of the artwork, our artists request no closeup photography of the art itself please. Out of respect for the artists, this rule is strictly enforced. All Amazing staff members would be happy to take a photo of the art for you in a manner where it cannot be reproduced so easily - just ask.
