Maybe this says something about my mood lately.

beer me

sketch of graphic novel characters from a couple of weeks ago

Rule to remember when drawing in a cafe/bar: before you put your sketchbook down on the table, make sure you're not putting it in a puddle of beer (it was a small puddle of beer, but still).  You can't actually see the stain on the page here, owing to the b&w scan, but I just thought I'd put that out there as a warning.

it's all relative

Graphic novel characters, again.  While I was working on this at Short Run, another exhibitor at my table asked if the guy in glasses was a well-known, non-local cartoonist, whom I will refer to as "Andrew Peck."  When I answered rather testily that it was not, it was because my fellow exhibitor clearly thought I was the type of dork fangirl who would draw a picture of another cartoonist I don't know just because I'm, like, so crushed on him.  From the brief exchange that followed, I now realize that, worse yet, this guy thought I was annoyed because, like, he didn't know what my hero Andrew Peck really looks like!  Ugh, barves. 

Inspired by a recent conversation.
