A backlog of posts. Trying to coordinate across multiple platforms is proving well beyond my powers.

Halloween is in the air. A grotesquerie from today's waiting room wait.

Beth bought a Brushpen Breakfast Sketchbook and asked to be drawn as an alien...I went Mamie Van Doren style. When I put her in the warhead brazier, she cackled with delight.

Phew. You never know how that's gonna go over.

OK, so I'm trying to follow the lead of those more tech-savvy than me and post these on the vaunted tumblr.

And Ranjo has been inveighing me to get on Instagram.

But these new image outlets leaves me feeling nostalgic about my Blogger platform. So I want to keep this one going. This format better lends itself to a "curated" scroll, I think. With that in mind, I think I will back fill a few days to show what I did over the weekend at the 2nd Annual San Diego Comic Fest.

So sue me!

Here's Scott Benefiel's copy of the Brushpen Breakfast Book. An Ellis pop-up book "surprize."

There's only ONE copy left of the initial print run--so order yours today!

I just had to include this one. Crayola of my buddy, Jimmy "Maurice" Gorham.

 Had a great time drawing this for Tyler. Had no idea who Adam Strange was, but he filled me in. Tyler's homemade costume was great--and he got a real kick out of the drawing. Thanks, dude!

My shingle at the San Diego Comic Fest. Heading is nonsensical, but I liked the caricatures too much to redo it.

Guy on the right was seated to my right at San Diego Comic Fest: Dennis Neal Smith. A nice guy who really dug my Paris ink of the Closerie des Lilas. Thanks, Dennis!

Drew this with a bright pink Pentel brushpen. Put it in Pho-Sho and hit "AUTO TONE" and it came out like this. Looks like I did a blue-line underdrawing (I di'n't!).

Inktober ink of the Gorgon "painting." Using an old Pentel brushpen.

 Sadly, I think there's more life and action in this little ink than the whole elaborate Gorgon final!

The felt-tip marker "painting" redo of this year's "Monsters & Dames" entry.

Yes, felt-tip marker...with a lot of Photo Shop enhancement. But none of that "digital drawing." I'm doing all this on a laptop!
