Sometimes I draw our friends during their shows. This turned out to be a decent likeness of Mike O'Malley, but it's definitely the best I've ever drawn his damn bouzouki! There's something about that shape that I just cannot, I don't even know. I like how the colors turned out, though. Tombow markers are my favorite traveling companions--these days, I always have five or six of 'em in my purse.

Mike is a pretty great musician as well as a life model, so you should definitely check out his music. He's playing at the Sidewalk Café in the East Village tonight at 11 pm, so come join us if you feel so inclined!
