From my bud Ian Sands' story The Top Ten Essential Items For Surviving Fourth Grade. I'm not sure I'm done but it is suddenly less fun. Thinking I might add a bit more pattern to the foreground characters.
On to the next thing! My Play! Yes, I wrote a play. It will be performed Halloween. It's a Halloween play. I will share more later!
Tonight I met the legendary wildlife conservationist and fine artist, Robert Bateman. He told my sister and I a story about being in a canoe when a caribou swam right up to it... if you meet me in person I'll give you the rest of the details (it's one worth hearing for sure). Not having enough money to buy a print (sigh) I instead got him to sign my sketchbook. He flipped through it and to my utter amazement says he really likes my cross hatching! Made my day ten million times over. Thanks Mr. Bateman... another childhood dream comes to reality.
ps: The photo from left to right is
1) Me, 2) My sister, Michelle Schwengler and 3) Mr. Bateman... not batman! bateman... sheesh.
