The CAM needs artist for the Sketch-A-Thon at the SDCC09
Hey all, I will be in San Diego for the Comic-Con this summer working with the Cartoon Art Museum again. If you are an artist and are at the con and want to help out….
The Cartoon Art Museum Sketch-A-Thon at San Diego Comic-Con needs your help!
San Diego Comic-Con International is fast approaching, and the Cartoon Art Museum needs your help! In order to raise funds and raise awareness of the Cartoon Art Museum, we’ll be hosting our second annual Sketch-A-Thon at this year’s Comic-Con.
We’re looking for artists to sit at our table for one-hour sessions, drawing sketches for Comic-Con attendees in exchange for donations to the Cartoon Art Museum. Past guest artists included Alison Bechdel, Tom Beland, Daryl Cagle, Rick Geary, Derek Kirk Kim, Keith Knight, Batton Lash, Steve Lieber and Eric Powell, among others, and we’re hoping to put together another all-star line-up for this year. This year’s guest list already includes Marvel Comics artist & letterer Rick Parker, mini-comics creator Karen Luk and underground comix legend Bobby London, with more surprises to come.
Artists of all shapes, sizes and skill levels are welcome, so please don’t be intimidated by the list that I’ve posted. We’re hoping to have one veteran artist and one up-and-comer at the table at all times, which will allow the younger artists to learn from the older ones (and vice versa).
We set a new fundraising record at last year’s Comic-Con, and we’re hoping to top that total this year.
Thanks very much for your consideration. If you’re able to give some of your time at this year’s Comic-Con, please send me an e-mail and I’ll fill you in on the details and start working out a schedule. If you’ll be on-site but unable to leave your table and you’d still like to contribute a sketch or a signed book, please let me know and I’ll add you to our sign-up list.
Best,
Andrew Farago

Carnaval of Stars artwork
This weekend I was at the CARNIVAL OF STARS! Belly Dance and Comic convention at Centennial Hall in Hayward. The dancing was great and the people wonderful. I did quite a few drawings for the conventions attendees, including some caricatures.
Some of my favorites (note some drawings have been given some color by way of Photoshop)
This next drawing is one of my favorites since I think I was “in the ZONE” at the time. I drew the following drawings with a brush dipped in ink.

10 Combo Creature Evolution
Another exercise I did while I was on vacation this week in SoCal. This time it was to draw 10 creatures made up two different animals. I started with the Chipmunk/Turtle. The next one used the Turtle’s head and a new body, that of a rabbit. I continued on from there with the last drawing cycling back to the first one.

50 Pirates challenges
OK, I am on vacation following my swell time at the SDCC08. I have been taking advantage of some free time to do some drawing exercises. This one involved drawing the heads of 50 pirates.
I will replace with a scans when I arrive home.
