Art restoration?  Dawn, that's easy, right?

So, um, pigments were only black and white?
You have twenty seconds to comply.

Not convinced...

Now seriously, Linda and I here.  Wow, like old friends.

Best drawing of the night?
Best one?

Best?

Best.

These two, so fun.  Even got to chill later on.  Reg and And... you all are ok.

Creeper Central Deluxe

Here's a few folks that stopped in the last time I was doing the "Creeper" thing in Hyattsville at the 2015 Artomatic.  I had fun.  They had fun.  Cookies.  Some drawing happened.  Etc.
Adorable and very patient.

I like how this one turned out.

Fish pop?

Sweet.  I really dig this one.

This one too!


Dude!

DUDE!

What's the deal, weirdo?

Easily the funniest conversation of Artomatic... so far.



These guys wanted to do round two, but I had a bit of a line.  I'm still game!


These guys... so nice.


What an awesome and patient participant.  She was all about it!

I recall this woman making some sort of comment like "I would totally DO the woman in that painting."  Whoa.
So pumped!
Even more pumped!!!
Still two more chances to do it up.  December 4th 7-10 and December 12th (closing night) time TBD.  More info:

Creeper Central

Meet some of the visitors to "Creeper Central."  They managed to find their way up onto the 4th floor of Artomatic 2015 in Hyattsville to sit in for a five to ten minute session with The Creeper.  Not only that, but some of them were even around for the musicality of Luncheon lead singer and all around super cat, David Burns.  A fun night was had by all.  There was even candy.  Artomatic 2015 runs through December 12th.  Don't miss it!  More info here.
These guys were super cool and brave

C'mon, get your creep on!

Guess what Dave?  You got CREEPED!

ARTOMATIC 2015 - Meet the Band

Creeps in progress
The one of a kind Artomatic is back!  It's been three years since the last time this mega art and performance show happened and it looks like the space they found was well worth the wait.  This time around I've set up a music inspired room with new paintings of musicians that I've drawn live in concert, drawn from my imagination, drawn from photos of famous artists, and in most cases, a combination of all of the above.  Come visit!  I'll be in the space at least six times through the six week show.  Visitors can "pay what you feel" for a a creeper portrait done on the spot, purchase a new/old zine and mini comic, and on several select dates hear live music from some of my musician buddies played in "Creeper Central."

The Creeper is in:
Live Music in Creeper Central
