O's Fanfest

Yesterday was the prelude to baseball season in Baltimore, where I found myself once again drawing fans of our national pastime!



This one was a challenge! The dad asked me to draw the two kids as a shortstop and second baseman in a double play. While I know what a double play is when I see one, it happens so fast, I needed him to explain exactly what I was to draw each boy actually doing. They also asked for an Oriole bird to be included.

This little sleeping angel was a total joy to draw. His mom tried to wake him up, but he was so deeply asleep that I just went ahead and drew him like that! This one attracted a lot of "oohs" and "awwwwwwws". :-)


Lots of happy faces turned out for the day. We're all hoping Opening Day doesn't get rained out tomorrow...
