Showing off Again.

Jan 04, 2007 20:38


A month or so ago I took a day off in San Francisco. This was full of many things, most notably a closed SF MOMA, the looting of Nordstrom's, and feeling rather unfashionable even on public transport.

And that night, on the train, I drew myself in the window's reflection and watched people watching me draw across the aisle of the train. I was deliriously happy that none of them were moved to comment in such ways as:
"Wow, you draw real good."
"Did you go to school for that?"
"I have a brother that draws.."
"Can you draw my cat?"
"Are you a professional?"

I have received variations of these comments while drawing in public places, which is in part why I am so loathe to do it. I simply can't relax. Of course, I'll have to train myself otherwise. Someday.



If you see this person drawing on a bus somewhere, please do not poke her with sticks. She will beat you with her heavy backpack and/or stab you with a $6 pen. Maybe leave candy.

I'm soon going to have a batch of female characters ready. Does anyone have any weird/unusual physical traits I can draw on them?

No guarantees, just looking for ideas to draw with. Please don't leave your EQ character unless you get the form to fill out from me.

sketches, egotism
