Michele, My Belle...

Sorry about the gap between posts. I've been bedeviled by my computers since early December. Here's a drawing of my wife, Michele, when she was very sleepy.

Hey, though my computer's working fine, Blogger seems a bit off. I couldn't sign in using my own account. I had to do so while commenting on someone else's blog. I hope this is a Blogger thing and not a "Bob is Cursed by the God of Computers" thing. Anyone else have this problem signing into their Blogger account?

That's a gorgeous drawing, Bob.

Can you add a little about what media it is, and size?

Bob Fingerman said...

Thanks, Jason.

It's pencil (brown Col-erase, to be specific) on sketch paper. The full drawing is 11 x 14 inches; it's full figure, but I just posted the portraiture.

BTW, I checked out your site. Really nice work.

Thanks for filling in the details, and thanks for your kind words!

You'll never remember this, but we actually sort of met-- well, talked on the phone, anyway-- I was an art director at Fantagraphics many years ago. We talked about color sep work on the computer. And I want to say that I did some art monkey work on Minimum Wage, but I may be smoking crack (it was a long time ago).

Anyway, I've long been a fan!

Great piece.

Cheers,

Jason
