It was drawn with a "Sumo Grip" mechanical pencil which has some really smooth lead in it (it's no specialty pencil - just a run of the mill gimmick deal...comfortable to hold, smears a little on the easy side)...and drawn on some inexpensive Sanford sketch pad 11 x 14 paper you can buy at any grocery or drug store. (Those yellow covered pads you always see.) If you haven't seen December 1st's assignment, click below to get caught up. In two weeks you'll see a more in-depth analysis and the answers to all the questions you were quizzed with 2 weeks ago. Assignment So that would really be the assignment: re-read the 1 December page and compare what you see in the caricature with the original photo - all in the Archives - and at this link: http://ycdinsiders.digitalchainsaw.com/InsidersArtistLoft/2003-archive-dec-1st.htm . Hope you're having a great Holiday season! Find that 15-20 minutes every other day (or hopefully more) to your progress and enthusiasm on the upswing :-) Warmly, Jeff
