The K-King's Sp-Speech.

By making "pun" of the title of this film, I am in no way making fun of the subject matter. I absolutely loved this film, and the relationship that develops between Lionel Logue and The King. I am fascinated by true stories, and especially when those stories can encourage and teach us all a little something about not giving up.

The Oscars are a favorite time of year for me -- so this year I am gonna attempt to sketch my interpretations of the top 10 Best Picture noms.

1 down, 9 to go!

Five more, oh me, oh my!

Five more film fests that "Tah-Dah" has been accepted into, I am just floored! This brings the total to 18 thus far, yahoo!

Here they are, in no particular order:

Oct 22 - Nov 1 in Chicago, IL: [This is the only Children's Fest to be Academy Award Qualifying, so that is exciting!]

Sept 25 - 27 in Birmingham, Alabama:

Oct 8 - 11 in Eugene, OR:

Sept 27 in Modesto, CA:

Traveling in Nov & Dec thru NYC, Rhode Island, Providence, NH & Concord:

Sketches of freelance / misc to come....I promise!
[I am slacking a bit on the "art-blog" end of things, I admit...but I just can't help but post film fest updates :) ]

Oscar Sketchin'... Part One

Here's a few sketches from the Oscars this year. Who can resist all that great caffe sketching material, especially when it's on for 4 hours! [And I love every minute of it!]

My fav, fav, FAV, Jodie Foster, was presenting, and that made my evening. [Well, that and OBVIOUSLY Ellen hosting!] Oh, and well, the taco dip we had sure added to the delicious-ness of the evening :)

More sketching fun from the night of the Golden Statue....to come....

ps - Cars should have won!!!!!!
That's all for now.
