I’ve been occupied with things— haven’t really been blogging much. Also haven’t gotten out for a while to the monthly Montreal Comic Jam. That happens near the end of the month at a strange little bar in east downtown called l’Escalier. (“The Stairway”) Very studenty, hippie sort of bar….
Anyhow, the event has morphed into sort of a social thing with individuals who like comics sketching away on their own projects, rather than any kind of “jam,” but that’s how these things change.
I don’t have much of a multi-media report on the event. I showed up, however, and my old pal Rick Gagnon was there. He did a splendid job inking my drawing of a silly pomeranian dog:
“Woof! Woof!”
Here’s also his interpretation of my sketch of one of the bar’s patrons:
Well, that’s kind of it.
I’m still drawing, by the way. It’s a process. Drawing a lot of heads, actually, but not really blogging them. More on that later.
I love the feet on the “silly Pomeranian.” They look like they’re carved from wood!
Imagine them interpreted in metal as feet holding up a tiny old-fashioned bathtub, used for washing small dogs. Somewhere out there I bet there’s already a guy making a buck off the idea. After all, film stars need a place to wash their teacup canines in their grand Hollywood mansions.
