"What the Duck" 8th Annual Retrospective/Best-of 2022 Cartoon Show

Today's the day - actually the art is up all month. But there's an official 1st Friday opening tonite from 3-8pm. As with the previous seven years experience for a guide I can safely assume I'll be the resident artist for the rest of January. Ursa Major Distilling hours are 3pm - 8pm Tuesday - Saturday. Here's a link to the official event page. And special thanks as always to the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner - please consider supporting with a subscription, and thanks for reading.

The warm-up band for tonight's gig is former student and rising star Shayla Sackinger (Bird Ninja). Super excited to have her amazing works up in the entryway.

I feel so bad about not having everything done in time for this show - like pins, stickers, tshirt, mags etc. Like in so many other areas I feel so far behind and overwhelmed. At least the work is all done and it's all up on the wall. Also gonna stick with the "individual openings" from earlier post-covid years.

The poster was created under the in-FLU-ence of horrid medication + illness that lasted almost two weeks. For working artists the hustle never, ever stops: there's no such thing as time off, sick days, or taking a holiday. Living the dream though. Like living inside a comic strip, jump right into the Sunday funnies.
