This is hard to admit, but I have a photo torn from Star magazine years ago of George Clooney eating a hot dog. It's been taped up on my easel for years. Once it fell off and got trampled upon and has had paint spilled on it, but the crumpled and worn photo still remains in its rightful place and is always present with each new illustration I crank out. Twisted, I know. Medium: graphite and digital paint.

KBROWNS,
I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.

Also, I just made a Freudian slip. :) Enjoy it.

... I hadn't thought of it that way, Vern, but now that you mention it, yes. That is what I am suggesting.
Though I would say that 14" has to be a gross exaggeration. Plus, who can wield a 14" wand? Too ungainly. A reliable 7" is better every time.
Right? . . .
Guys?

How am I just seeing these glorious hot dog works NOW? It is as if I have been smote by Cupid's greasy, fried, trans fat arrows.
I had 1"x1" photo of Jack Black cut from a magazine in a tiny frame for years, but lost it in a move sometime, many moons ago. Life hasn't been the same. Cherish your George + Hot Dog picture and never let it go, it might be the source of your powers.
