Wow, it seemed like all the things just chose to happen in this one weekend, and it doesn't seems like it is slowing down. Friday evening and Saturday morning, I had a great time with Roger's friends. Now fast forward to the art part!
Saturday afternoon we went to Brooklyn Comic and Graphic Festival. It was very crowded when we got there. I did not expect so many people going to that festival! I was there mainly for Paul Pope. Waiting around for Paul Pope to show up, I found a really cool artist instead, Sam Ita. He is an artist now makes pop-up book. I was instantly attracted by how he elaborately crafted the pop-up with the story. I bought one of his book, "Moby Dick", as Roger's nephew's Christmas gift. Sam even drew a cute whale next to his autograph! As for Paul Pope, he looks way cuter than I thought! Although, that's all I remembered of him. Since the autograph has a "suggested donation $5~$20", we decided just to give it up. Since when autograph requires money?

Sam Ita's autograph! |
On sunday, my usual figure sketch meetup,
the indoor got a little bit too cold that the model has to put on her clothes for the last pose. Still interesting to work with.
