A New Year’s resolution: post more sketchbook pages up on this blog. These are some pages from over the holidays. (Taken with my iPhone camera.)
CARTOON IN THE TEXAS OBSERVER
Here’s a fun example of selling your by-products: The Texas Observer ran one of my cartoons in a feature on The Minor Mishap Marching Band in their November ’09 issue.
I drew the band at the Austinist Local Music Is Sexy event and the writer (and band member) Michael May saw the drawings and T.O. bought one. (Thanks, Michael!)
My friend Marsha Riti has a photo in the feature as well.
Pardon the crummy iPhone shots…
BUT IS IT POETRY?
ROBERT CRUMB, FRANCOISE MOULY, AND ART SPIEGELMAN
Texas Performing Arts was kind enough to give me some tickets to the conversation between Robert Crumb, Francoise Mouly, and Art Spiegelman last night at Bass Concert Hall.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to take notes: the lecture hall was dark, and I wasn’t close enough to the stage to get light from the slideshow to see my sketchbook. So I dashed these doodles off during the Q&A when the lights came up.
(Folks interested in Spiegelman should see my notes from when he visited Bookpeople last year.)
FUN FUN FUN FEST 2009
Let’s get something straight: I hate music festivals. I don’t dig on big crowds, standing around for extended periods of time, port-o-johns, and overpriced beer. All that said, Fun Fun Fun Fest is a pretty awesome time. I made it a record 6 hours yesterday, and even got inspired to doodle a few index cards here and there. Once it got dark, and I couldn’t see anymore, I headed home.
I won’t be going back today, because I have a ton to do, and I like my health and my sanity. (If next year, FFF Fest wants to provide me with a lawn chair and a good view, I’d be happy to doodle away all day.) Yes, I know I’m giving up the chance of a lifetime to draw Danzig. So it goes.
Death came out onstage in monk costumes:
