Friday night

Wedding weekend! My son is the ring bearer in a wedding this weekend so we had the rehearsal dinner tonight. Lots of fun and plenty of beer. Got home and everyone fell asleep except me. So I poured some rum in a cup and did some drawing. Did the layout for page 5 and got started on the pencils. Happy and buzzed. Nighty night~

It was my first time at that con and it was a lot of fun. There seemed to be a pretty good interest around the book and we sold 10 or 11 in the 2 hours I was sat there. Here's a sketch I did for Nan Roberts. (She was asking artists to draw either a cat, an owl or a hippo.)



I bummed Evan's brush pen to do the sketch. Really nice pen. (I believe it was a, "Pocket Brush Pen", by Pentel):
