Drawing Day 2009 - 24-Hour Marathon and Revitalized Gallery

Written by ina on Saturday, 23 of May , 2009 at 2:08 am

So, this year, I will again be hosting a 24-hour drawing marathon (no, not the *chance* kind of drawing, but rather… the thing you do with a pencil–no, not *that* thing! Oh, come on, don’t you draw?!) on the first Saturday of June, the traditional international drawing day–June 6, this year!

I’ll be taking drawing requests gratis ad nauseum–that is to speak, no Sicilian mafia artist can ever refuse a (drawing) request on Drawing Day. The best way to send me your request is to drop by the Drawing Day gallery inworld on Second Life anytime on June 6, 2009 between midnight and 11:59 PM PDT. You can also plurk or twitter me your request. Drawing Day gives me a chance to relive my undergrad days skipping out on NSF research to be a derelict sketch artist on the beach–actually, I meant, I’ll produce quick semi-abstract sketches of whatever your request is. Feel free to go crazy with your ideas! Here are some items I drew last year (some personalized with requestor’s name):

Incidentally, all participants (who log on SL this special day) get to display their drawing day artwork for free at the Drawing Day Gallery! Further details available at the sLiterary Drawing Day Gallery Venue Website.
