I have been working this summer on my memoir, Drawing Blood. Having just sent the latest draft to my editor, I’ve begun working on the interior illustrations of many of my beautiful friends. All drawings are done on Arches paper, with Ecoline dye.

You drawings and your writing are both exceptional. Talented beyond words! I would love to read your memoir.

This is going to be an excellent book, the personalities are right there & as good as your detailed art is I’m starting to really like the colorful background ink blotches the most.
