November/December at the childen's theater
🕑 Added 2023-12-11 05:41:46 +0000 UTCHi patrons,
This first postcard took me two tries to lay out. This was my first attempt. (Excuse the poor picture quality; this is what I texted to Barry asking if it worked.)
Because action in comics usually goes left-to-right, Barry had thought that the techies were carrying things out of the building. I had to find a way to show that the mom and the guy carrying the pine tree were on a collision course while making it clear that the Rudolph flats were going into the building. I tried this sketch to see if it was clearer.
It took awhile, but I'm really happy with how the drawing came out!
These cartoons (true stories) are from a satellite location, so I get a whole different color palette to work with:
When Portland schools have Fall Break, the theater offers Wizard School, a day camp where the kids role play. It's also my personal fashion week.
The Education Director pulled me at the last minute to be a bird-guardian at the end of a scavenger hunt. I didn't entirely understand what she had in mind, so I opted to be a silent bird-guardian and let her do the talking from behind the box office door. Some kids tried to communicate by making pigeon noises at me and it was super cute.
And just like that...
...fall turned into winter.
I hope you had a good start to the holiday season! Thanks, as always, for supporting me on Patreon.
-Becky
