.::sunday, apr 24::.
I was flattered to be asked by Rowan of the CBLDF to join in on Sunday's Quick Sketch.
To my right, Ed Beard doing an incredible Sharpie-and-Crayola fantasy drawing...
|
|
|
... to my left, Tal Caldwell and... some other guy. Some other guy was really nice.

Ed Beard (far right) and... some other... guys. Chris Moreno is in blue. I need to get a new camera!

Okay, I know you can't see it very well, but... this was what I actually woke up to that morning. F'ing Christmas In April.
It was 90 degrees last week, and I woke up to SNOW FLURRIES!
I have no idea what this was all about, but I do know that the warmest thing I brought was one sweatshirt.

Among my favorite commissions that day, a color shot of Hazel and Jamie for one very nice and very patient man (he waited all weekend for this).
|
|
|
Did this one for a really nice guy named Gary from West Virginia. Notice Hazel's shirt :) He lives where the star is.
|
|
|
And finally, Mike White's Green Lantern sketch.
So on my way home, I had to drive through the mountains of Pennsylvania, which were unseasonably covered in snow.
Don't believe me?

Check it out.
And for my next trick, here's a slew of sketches I did Saturday night and Sunday evening.
|
|
|
Not a very good resemblence of my pal, writer Lelan Estes, at the bottom there (although I got the horns right).
The top drawing was an attempt to draw...
|
|
|
... Mitchell Breitweiser, a rather talented guy (I kept finding the handsome ones, conveniently). He drew this...
|
|
|
... in my sketchbook after I was assured that he could actually draw and wasn't screwing with me when he asked to draw in it.
|
|
|
Bill Ellis, the talented guy who did the GWS guest strips last week, challenged me to a sketch-off, which only lasted two people:
Mike White and Bob Almond (respectively, top to bottom).

|
Dinner at Chili's, before I left to stare down the blizzard on my way home!
(That's it, folks! The camera was kept off for the majority of the trip because I was so busy drawing.
Thank you, everyone who came by and kept me busy doing sketches or handing over original artwork or books!
I loved meeting new folks along the way!)
