Stars, mosquitoes, cows and a Wild Ink Party

Returning from travel, I am trying to catch the Perseid Meteor shower and being bitten by mosquitoes as I do so.

I am also drawing a comic about Waltham and cows with Dave U, for Inbound no. 4. More about that to come... and speaking of which, I'd like to mention a party that I'll be helping host, next Thursday:




WILD INK: Live Comics, Live Music Event - August 20, 2009


“Wild Ink,” a live arts and music event, will be held at P.A.’s Lounge on Thursday, August 20th. “Wild Ink” is a fundraiser for the Boston Comics Roundtable, and will include amazing live comics creation, artistic head-to-head showdowns, the world’s most unusual live sketch gallery, big raffle prizes, and live music from Rotary.

Created in 2006, the Boston Comics Roundtable is a collective of comics creators in the Greater Boston area. Its mission: to network, teach, workshop, encourage, and publish the best and brightest artists and writers in the creation of comics. All proceeds will benefit the upcoming publication of Inbound #4, A Comics Anthology, featuring local artists taking on the strange but true history of Boston.

The event begins at 9 p.m. (doors at 8 p.m.) at P.A.’s Lounge in Somerville, MA (345 Somerville Ave., 617-776-1557). This is an 18+ show. Tickets are $12, paid at the door.

If you are in the Boston area, come on by! I'll be there, drawing something. Maybe I'll be doing the event where two people face off and try and draw something as fast as they can.
