This past Wednesday was the first of two Drink N Draw sketch night's for this month at Egan's Pub. I worked on this sketch of Todd, who is always fun to sketch.

And then I worked on some sketches for a couple of books that I have in development. This one is for a story called The May Pole, which has one of the first appearances of the Nain Rouge. In those early stories, he first showed up as a red faced dwarf, or imp, as he was called by Cadillac.

I'm trying to channel an illustration from Arthur Rackham, without copying directly.
Todd brought a Lego-ish advent Christmas tree and we all took a stab at putting together a piece. I had Santa Claus. It's now hanging on our tree.
