DRAWING IN BARS

Drawn from the themes of
"New York City" and "Beer"
for the comics art exhibit at
Each panel reflects the creative experiences of sitting & making
art in bars within various contexts, sketching live events or night-time office hours, socializing or solo.
​
Based on real places, the center panel features a prior art piece that was created in a bar, and had embedded personal references. The last panel depicts me in a local bar making THIS artwork!


The art exhibit aligns with New York Comic Con and includes several special events!
- Opening Reception: Wednesday, October 16th 6-9pm
- Cosplay Figure Drawing: Thursday, October 17th 7-9pm (by Queens Drink 'N Draw)
- Comic & Cartoon Trivia Night: Friday, October 18th 6pm start
​
As expected, I was at the entire opening & some figure drawing, then elsewhere Friday as Press for The Beat during NYCC (cross-posted on Instagram).
Hoping to set up other meetups/drawing sessions, casually or officially, before the show closes on Sun, November 10th.
​
UPDATE: Casual creative hangout on Friday, October 25th 7-8:30pm
I had my own personal drink, dine & draw while remaining available for visitors and public engagement. Mapped out the Inktober prompts I'd previously missed.
Possibly also Fridays Nov 1st & 8th, with sufficient interest / no scheduling conflicts.
Let's draw in bars together - sketch and socialize, talk comics, inking for October, and anticipating National Novel Writing Month.
