Daily Live Drawing

My live draw this week

During the pandemic, I live drew from my studio and broadcast on Instagram. Every day.  It was a way to connect with others, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  People told me they looked forward to my daily virutal gathering, as I would talk and draw about events/worries/ideas/concerns pertaining to the pandemic and then Black Lives Matter and then the election.  People would write in the chat box and I would respond, it was a dialogue.  If you have heard me speak about editorial cartooning–or cartooning in general for that matter– I have often said it is about dialogue.   These daily events (usually 15 minutes) are not always political, sometimes I don’t have an idea (it happens) and we just connect and I draw something. It’s just fluid– a connection.

I took a break from the live broadcasts, but now am back, daily during the week at 5pm.  If you follow me on Instagram, you will get a notification of my broadcasts.

Sometimes my live-draw is not from my studio, but outside in the world… and I will draw there.  Last week, I drew and broadcast on the train!  Why not?

Also, all my live draws are archived on my instagram, so you can see ones you missed or just look around.
