Miserable Artist Responsible For Gideon's Bakehouse Artwork Appearing At EPCOT Festival Of The Arts

The self proclaimed miserable artist and art director for Gideon's Bakehouse in the East End Market and Disney Springs will be appearing at The 2023 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts!

The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts kicks off on January 13, and this year's celebration of the visual, performing, and culinary arts will include the most talented artist responsible for all the wonderful artwork at Gideon's Bakehouse.

Michael Reyes or Mr. Eyes as he prefers to be called, creates all the wonderful characters on the Gideon's menus that everyone lines up for at Disney Springs.

You will see his wonderful work everywhere at Gideon's, and every month Gideon's fans wait to see his latest creation, you can even purchase shirts, artwork, and limited edition pins with the Gideon's characters that Michael creates.

Micheal will be debuting new artwork at the festival, including Nathaniel Tarwater, a new original work and an event-exclusive print.

This signed and numbered 11x14" print is run on super heavy (1/16" thick) stock in an edition of 250 pieces.

Also making a print debut is Narfino Necropolis, who many of you may know as "Cousin Narfi."

Narfi is an 8x10, signed print, on the same heavy stock.

Michael will also have goodies for those who are kind enough to visit him during the festival.

"Something about sticker or buttons, or something of that sort. I guess you'll have to find out by visiting, no?"

Michael will be returning to the Pop Gallery booth, which you will discover close to the China Pavilion in World Showcase, same place as last year.
