Nope. I don't. Not this year anyways. Been thinking about it a lot lately though so need to get back at it. Before bed last night I did a quick sketch... Conan looking guy and a panel of me in the corner. Just random stuff, the two images are not connected. This year I turned 50 and like any middle ager... we worry about leaving this earth having not done things we wished we had. For me, being published has been a lifetime urge both as a writer and illustrator. I have had a couple of my images purchased from me and used in magazines to go along with others writings so in a way I have been published I suppose but I'm thinking more along the lines of a graphic novel perhaps. So, that nagging thought has been beating the crap out of me for months now. Can you relate?

Life studies - My friend Levon
This girl has so much character in her face that I'm surprised I haven't drawn her before. Felt like it tonight though. I really do need to do more real life stuff.
I have this sketchbook by work from Lenord Robinson and there is this sketch he did of a gal very much like this one. It was good for me to use it as reference and combine with my friends actual face to get this down. I found that her features weren't as easy as some peoples to nail down so Lenord's sketch really helped me attack the technique. The guy is really brilliant. It's that fine line between outright copying someone and using them as a teacher to understand how to take that pen in your fingers and make it work properly.
Master studies basically
