Wonderful weekend. FYI… “Unseasonably warm” is a euphemism for global warming.

The State of the Union was on last night. I didn’t watch it – which is unusual for me. Before the election I was a political news junkie – but since November I’ve been maintaining a self-imposed media blackout – no Air America – no C-Span or Crossfire. Wolfe and I spend only a fraction of the time together that we used to.

Here is my entry for the Alias Sketchbook Pro contest called Expose Yourself 2. They’re asking artists to create a breakdancing character using only Sketchbook Pro for a video game. Using my handy Fujitsu Tablet PC I created several concepts and got a chance to really explore the software and the tablet. It’s amazing. I predict these things will eventually catch on. Shameless I know – but the winner gets $5000.00 and a new Tablet PC, so please give me a vote – contest starts February 2 ends February 14. You will need to register – but it only takes a minute.

Girl with Pet Goat was selected to be in the exhibit “Drawing National 2”, held at Montgomery College in Rockville, Maryland from February 21 to March 11. Opening reception is February 21, from 6-8pm. More information is here.
