Entry for Feb 26, 2013

On that Tuesday I braved yet another of this year's ugly, blizzardy nights to get over to the Rhino bar, where Toons on Tap were having their 1-year anniversary drawing session.
Sion and local Burlesque person Charlie Quinn were working with a Film Noir/gangster theme, amplified by a really good soundtrack and dramatic sidelighting.
These are three 10-minute studies, a 15-minute and a 20-minute one, and two more 5-minute ones.
The 15 and the 20 are done with hard compressed charcoal, and all the rest are done with a Sakura Graphic pen.
All are done on 18 x 24" sheets of Canson XL Drawing paper.
It was a fun evening.
