Black Friday Sketch-a-thon!

What does a die hard artist do on Black Friday? Mall: yes. Shop: no.

This past Friday I joined the bustling crowds at the mall. I parked three blocks away to avoid the chaos in the parking ramp. I walked in, burrowed into a cozy seat in a coffee shop, started rockin' the brand new album from Girl Talk on my iPhone and selected my targets. Here are the results...

I had a ton of fun doing this. Coffee shop sketching is a blast for me anytime but mix it with a mall on the busiest shopping day of the year and you've got a recipe for good sketching. Anyone else out there dig in to their sketchbooks this past weekend?

How to ride a turkey

Did you know that it's actually possible to ride a turkey? This blew my mind when I found out. Here's how (in two simple steps)...

Step 1: Meet someone who can draw.
Step 2: Have that person draw you riding a turkey.

It's so easy!

Here's a fun little sketch I worked up recently of my little nephew (3yrs) celebrating Turkey Day like a vet! Have a great Thanksgiving, everyone!

Pumpkin Pie? Naw...Cutie Pie!

Turkey day is fast approaching and I'm reminded of this cute little pilgrim that I worked up awhile back. So, pardon me as I blow the dust off of this one and submit it for this year's feast.
Enjoy!
