Life of the party...

Bar Stars

This is from my #drunkwithmarkers sketches, and one of my favorites.

Num Num - Birthday drawnings

On the weekend prior to my bday I had drinks with two other birthday folks, Nonnie and Christian along with several coworkers and friends down @ Low Brow Lounge. Much tequila and miller lite was consumed by myself and I'm sure less dirty stuff by others. Durning that time, Nonnie, one of the BDay'ers managed to get some Radio Cab taxi writing pads and we started a group brain storm for a new character. Starting only with the name of "Num Num". Above are the results, of one of the pads. As soon as I get the other I'll scan and post it. Each drawing is by a different person, can you guess which one is mine? Following this, comes "Giggles"... well... what's safe to post on blogger of it... censor bars to the rescue!!!!

Wow this took way to long. The "Giggles" drawing are yet to be scanned but at least now I have the second batch of "Num Num" drawings to post.

Napkin Drawings @ Valentines - Unofficial Band Promo

So back towards the end of October I got to see my friend Cat play at Valentines in downtown portland. She's part of the group "Hide & Go Hustle" These drawings were mostly created during her set that night, the first is of her, and I admit it's pretty poor but I was trying to capture her head gear more then anything....

The band plays with a mix of live instruments, the Cello and Guitar namely, with some live drums and horns but utilizes a ton of loop and effects peddles. I was drinking as I drew these and lost some of them, I swear I had a napkin full of just peddles, but these are what remain from 4 vodak tonics plus Hide & Go Hustle. Personally my favorite is of Mike peddling the guitar...

You should note Cat is in another group, in addition to Hide & Go Hustle called Black Heart Moon. Their first show is coming up on Decemeber 12 @ The Way Post in portland. Cat is flexing her singing muscles on this one, and I have to say she really should have busted them out sooner.
