USAGI YOJIMBO

Greetings severely neglected blog. How have you been?

So, this is a painting I finished on the weekend of Usagi Yojimbo. It is 9x12 and it was painted with Acryla-Gouache on Paper.

I don't post much here any more, I hope that will change, but to be honest, it probably won't.

If you would like to see what I'm up to, I post sketches and other nonsense on my Tumblr account.

And I also post a fair amount of drawings on twitter...

I have an instragram too. Besides drawings, you will also see photos of my dog.

Very cool!

Is this being contributed to the CAPS Stan & Sharon Benefit auction?

Thnaks,

Thanks.

That was the intention, but I never heard back from them.

It is probably too late to get this into the "Sakai Project" book which Dark horse is publishing, the deadline for that was back in February I believe.

As far as the Benefit auction which CAPS is running to raise money for Stan and Sharon Sakai, that will continue until they run out of contributions, and they will keep accepting contributions for the auction until people stop sending them in.

They just started the fifth round of auctions on Ebay this past Thursday and the amount of really neat artwork has been tremendous.

I am sure this piece would also do really well. I know I would bid on it, and I know there are a decent number of people watching these auctions who have similar tastes as I do since I keep getting outbid on everything I bid on.

Oh yeah, wanted to mention that I shared your piece on the Usagi Yojimbo Dojo Facebook page (with a link back to your blog here)

Thanks again,
- Steve
