CAKE Frame 2: April 20

Chicago friends: I can't wait to see you all at the April 20 CAKE fundraiser, CAKE Frame 2, at the Co-Prosperity Sphere! There will be comics performances, live music, live drawing and a gigantic art auction. Cover your walls with affordable art and support an amazing show while you're at it! 30 artists from the Chicago comics community were generous enough to contribute original drawings or signed prints to help raise money for CAKE (which is coming up soon on May 31/June 1), including Chris Ware and Ivan Brunetti. All of the CAKE organizers are donating work too; I just finished the new piece I made for the auction, which I am donating along with the original drawing from this year's Zine Fest. Winter has finally passed, the sun is out and green is starting to tenuously emerge from the gray and brown, so I wanted to make something cheerful, something that everyone would want to bid on to take home, so I made a reminder that we're all gonna die. Happy happy spring!

Both the Memento Mori and the zine fest drawings are 11" x 14" pen and ink, with watercolor on the former.
