24th Worldwide Sketchcrawl




We all met at the Japanese Gardens. What a great day and the weather...perfect! Our group started with 4 and then later we found 4 more sketchers that joined the group.

I am very inspired by everyone. Check out the rest of the sketches at Portland Sketchcrawl.

Two Books on the Best Sellers List!




About a year ago, I was commissioned to illustrate two short stories in two books edited by Paul Buhle.
One book was based on the lives of The Beat generation ans the other was based on the interviews of Stud's Terkel's Working.
I just got a copy of the Best Seller's list. The Beats: A Graphic History came up #3 and Working is listed as #12.
