I just wanted to say a quick thanks to all the new "watchers" (I like 'friends' better, but I guess FB has that already) that have started watching my DA page in the last couple days. For some reason, you post a couple Simba drawings and people go nuts! I got 500 WATCHERS IN ONE DAY! I saw that number pop up and my eyes bugged out. We love that Lion King movie still, huh? I do, that's for sure. It was a blast to work on it. I'll have to write a journal about it soon. So, bad news is that I didn't look ahead to well and just realized I might not be able to post Thurs and Fridays Simba sketch this week! I am going out of town tonight- to Kenosha, Wisconsin- to be a guest speaker for a Cartoonist Festival they are having there. On Thurday I will be speaking at Carthage College and doing a radio interview (local public radio) and then on Friday a panel (free and open to the public) with the other cartoonists there on the subject of "Marketing yourself as an artist". I will be talking about all of you (indirectly) and about the incredible atmosphere here on Deviant Art, for sure! (Google Kenosha Cartoon Festival for more details). I hope some of you will be there! Mention DA, if you come, I'd like to meet my "watchers"! (That still sounds terrible.)
AND, for those of you in COSTA RICA, I have been frantically working on renewing my passport this week so I can attend the (I dont' know what it is called) Comic con and animation convention there! Its the weekend of Oct. 1st. I don't have many details (which makes me feel uneasy that its still on) but if you are there, I sure I hope I can meet you! More on that if I hear anything.
