Each Friday a Drawing for My Readers
August 3, 2007
Ok…Friday’s are going to be open. Today’s cartoon is the first of it’s kind. I received a request from SmashedFrog for something on Bob Allen. After doing some research, (since I’m not from Florida) I learned a bit more about Mr. Bob Allen. And while everyone is innocent until proven guilty, I had some fun with Florida’s history of voting booths at his expense. Sorry Bob (ok not really).
What is Open Friday
Open Friday will feature drawings for my readers. If you have a topic, an event (national or even local), or something else you think would make a great cartoon, send me an email. Each week I’ll collect the requests and on Friday’s I’ll post a cartoon from the one I feel most inspired by.
Yeah, it’s a great, egalitarian system, I know, but I’m the one doing the drawing.
So email me at drawmesomething@pixelmarx.com.
Also a few guidelines. Simple is best. Coming up with the idea is the part I like. Art direction will find itself on the bottom of the pile. And no requests of private individuals, only public figures, news, or other topics that are a part of the public discourse.
Enough with the blah blah. This should be fun.
P.S. And remember to check back on Friday to look for your request.
