Welcome to #Checkin for Friday, August 2nd, 2024!
Why howdy there #Checkin people, it’s me, Rod again. It’s FRIDAY!
I’m currently smitten with Tom Gauld’s work. That was one of his illustrations I posted yesterday. I’m jealous of his sense of humor and envious of his skill. Or maybe the reverse. It’s almost enough to make me begin drawing again. Local artist Lalo Alcaraz, has received many accolades for his political cartoons. Both he and my friend Rob Reger (Emily Strange) were in town for the San Diego Comic Con. I heard it was fabulous. I stayed home and moped. Another published artist I know who will remain nameless (James Esker) told me that I should do a cartoon or graphic novel loosely based on any of my family members who immigrated here.
“Their stories are knockouts!”
I’m usually open to advice from successful artists, but... I don't know. I can draw okay. I'm just not that good of a cartoonist. I guess I should practice, huh?
Once again, the topic is always open.
(Me, I love that Gould portrayed the "Goddess of War and Death" as a corvid.)
