A Peter Dinklage Sketch

Back in February, I watched a video of the actor Peter Dinklage, who was reading a poem by Amanda Gorman in Minneapolis at an event to show support for the people there, for obvious reasons. His stance, posture, balance, his long winter coat interested me. It would be fun to sketch him. A couple months later, I did so.

This Saturday, you can find me set up at the Detroit Comic Book and Toy Show in Dearborn, MI, among a good line-up of Michigan artists, including a few more than listed on the flyer above. Stop on by and say hello.

I'll have books, comic books, sketch card AP's stickers, prints, a jigsaw puzzle, or two and original art. See you there!

 My latest Substack is the final chapter of my mattress making cartoons. I was there awhile, so there were a lot of them over the years. Click here to suffer miserably.

Last week was the March meet-up for the Belleville Drink N Draw at Egan's Pub. It was a smaller group this time, but the night was filled with good conversation, grub and drinks. The talk was so good that I almost forgot to sketch. But, I did get some in, doing a sketch of who has become a favorite subject, Todd. He has a great big bushy beard (that must be said in a Jim Broadbent as Frank Butterman voice. IFYKYK).
