Hi Kids!


That’s me in my blogging corner in the back of the room.
Over 20 youth participated in a morning of comic fun, from 10am to 2pm, at Whole Foods Market in Arabella Station. Cartoonist Eli Ivory gave free drawing lessons, comic books and other prizes to the young artists. Thanks to everyone who participated.
Here are a few photos of the artwork that was produced.

Hi Kids!
3 – 2 – 1! And they’re off! Everywhere there is furious scribbling as our 24 HCD officially kicks off.
Fortified by bagels, cream cheese, and coffee from Winnings Coffee Co. http://www.winningcoffeeco.com/ and housed at the Harwood Art Center http://harwoodartcenter.org/ss/ we who are http://www.baaadasssscomics.com/ are all set for another fabulous 24 Hour Comic Day.
I’m Chuck and I’ll be here with the play-by-play, or rather page-by-page color commentary–okay, I’ll be letting you know what’s going on as often as I can. I’m shooting for once an hour, but life somehow gets in the way and–well you know how it is…
We have 26 folks starting this afternoon and I’ll be sending pics and other tidings as we go along…
Good luck to all the New Mexico contestants!

After 20 hours there are still 12 enthusiastic drawers working in Rovaniemi library.
The day is bright and sunny and the athmosphere – as many times said – warm.
Library has opened the doors and many of the visitors have stopped to admire
drawings. Drawers seem to be even more concentrated on their work than 10 hours ago.
Right now there are about 10 ready 24-pages work.
Local newspaper just came to interwiew participants – great! And one person from
Kemi Comic Centre came to sell comics and pins. (Kemi is our neigbour about 100 kilometer from Rovaniemi city).
What more can I say – it’s awesome to be part of this happening : )
9.30 am. It´s a bright and sunny morning in Rovaniemi, Northern Finland. Despite the fact that the sun is shining, the weather outside the library is still quite cold, something about minus 5 degrees (C). But, as it´s said also in the earlier blog post, the atmosphere here inside the library is warm and cozy.
Between 7 am. and 9 am. many of the drawers left home. Some of them finished their cartoon with 24 pages and it was really nice to see their faces shining along the rising sun – although drawing all night long must have been quite a hard job. I believe these young ones need a good sleep after 15 – 17 hours of drawing…
At the moment there are about fifteen drawers still working on their pieces of art. One of the girls just fell asleep, leaning her head on the drawing table. Every one else seem to be enthusiastic, and there is no signs of giving up!
At Rovaniemi library is silent time, sleeping is threating, but many do their work they have decided. It is still dark, and some misty, when we go out for cheering up.
