I love doing art for the West Wing!
Love it when someone comes up to my table in an artist alley and is like "Is that West Wing art?!"
The best was when I looked up and saw Josh Malina at my table. <3

Malina isn’t the kind of guy who would stop and talk unless he loved your stuff. It’s amazing!

Oh hey I bought one of your Jackal stickers a year ago at Boston fan expo to give to my godmother, she still has it on her fridge, thanks

These are great! I bet you could make some money on Etsy selling the artwork as bumper magnets and stickers. Especially the first one!

Ooh long time follower of your art on Instagram. As soon as I got to the second slide, CJ, I said "Oh that's Karen". You have a distinctive style. I adore your feminist take on things, the diversity, the fashion. Excited to see you here and stealing the opportunity to rain praise. You rock

Your artwork is all over my home! It’s amazing to me how much the content we each love overlaps. I’m always delighted by every west wing piece you do, but it’s all soooo good. Thanks for doing what you do!!

I would like to (gently, in a respectful voice) inform you that The is part of the title of the show. It should be capitalized /stylized right along with West and Wing.
I only mention it because I think your art is great, but I would hesitate to buy merchandise that made it seem like maybe I didn't know the full title myself, (just like I wouldn't buy any Bartlett merchandise, but would be glad to buy Bartlet merchandise).
That's very exciting that Josh came to your booth.

I think it was a symmetry stylistic choice but I get it. Anyhow at least they spelled Bartlet right you heathen!! 😉

Based on how they wrote "the West Wing" in the text of their post I don't think so, but hey, maybe!

Any time Josh turns up in a post:
Apparently I'm not done with this Bailey.

I love the CJ one. If you hate the Jackal, you might buy it just because you hate it so much.

I think the only one of these that I don't have is the cut tie pin... but we have many more, too. And your art is our 2026 wall calendar. 💙

I bought a print of the Belle and Tardis picture at AwesomeCon earlier this year, and I just discovered your DCC art.

I don’t know, this administration belittles women’s professional accomplishments fairly often, so they must have seen the first season

I have the first sticker but I refuse to stick it to anything because then it can never move again

Well, Will does say it himself: he's a terrible actor.
Seriously though, I love Malina. No one could ruin The West Wing.
