Question from the viewing public

Anonymous asked if the Russian in the video I referred to in my previous post is actually Russian. As far as I know he is not. He is well-known author Paul Davidson who writes for Wired magazine and has just released a new book, The Lost Blogs. He's a very funny guy who does funny books and accents very well.

Finally had time for Illustration Friday

The Illustration Friday topic this week is "Portrait." This is a quickie portrait sketch of a very pretty baby girl named Antonia -- I plan to do more.

In other news, my daughter is appearing in a show, "Subject Line Here," on June 16th. If you are in the LA area check it out -- it's a fundraiser for the Leukemia/Lymphoma society. If you saw her video, 3 of the people who appear in will also be in the show: Shane Nickerson (The Nickerblog in a toga), AJ Gentile (Gaelic guy with a pink rose on his t-shirt) and Paul Davidson (the Russian).
