Event Recap: Drink and Draw at Frank’s Power Plant, Milwaukee

I visited the Drink and Draw event at Frank’s Power Plant last Friday. It was a good opportunity to meet new people and make connections, as well as draw to our heart’s content.

Many of them compared my stuff to “Scott Pilgrim” as well as to Skottie Young, another comic book artist whose work I’ve checked out. A good example of his art can be found here.

Photos from the event can be found on the Drink & Draw Milwaukee Facebook page, specifically here.
