Behold!

So last weekend I went to Philadelphia for a comic book convention. I didn't take a crazy amount of pics, but if you're interested in seeing the small handful I snapped you can take a look at this link:

In case you're wondering why there are so many long shots of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, it's because we were having a hard time trying to figure out how to use the nighttime feature on my camera without it coming out super blurry. Apparently, I can't make good use of that feature unless I get a tripod. :(

Very cool! Had I known you were going, I could have pointed you to my friend Tom Hodges: www.tomhodges.com
as I know he was at WW Philly hanging in Artist's Alley. Check him out, you may enjoy his work :)

It's so funny that you mention that, because Mike and I struck up a conversation with him and his wife at last year's convention...he had just come from the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund's sketch duel, and we visited his table at Artist's Alley because Mike wanted to compliment him on one of the drawings he completed.

In an even stranger coincidence, Mike was going through some old t-shirts about a month ago, and stumbled across one that had the drawing of a hot lady in a red dress. It had caught his eye when he was looking at items on Cafe Press, so even though he wasn't familiar with the artist or the artwork, he bought it. Some time later, I think after meeting Tom last year, he discovered that Tom was the man responsible for the shirt. It's like universe is trying to send Mike the message that Tom is significant to him in some way, and it'll be interesting to see if their paths cross again in the near future.

Now that IS funny!
You may want to check out his myspace (if you haven't already) as well as his LJ where he posts sketches fairly regularly...

I don't get out from behind the camera all that often, but you'll find a couple shots of me in this folder:

This is from my best friend's bachelorette party: I'm the one in the green horizontal-striped top (you'll know it's me because I pop up more than once...don't confuse me with the woman who I'm posed with who was coincidentally wearing the same outfit as me that night.
