Wondercon 2007 - Linda Medley drawing demonstration

Linda Medley, artist of the Graphic Novel 'Castle Waiting' at Wondercon 2007 doing a drawing demonstration based on a character description given by the audience. I took it with my still camera so the video and audio is not that good. Plus, I did not get video of her drawing since my arms were getting tired, so that part is a still image slide show segment.

The questions are asked of Who, What, Where, Why, How etc. and the audience comes up with a very old female, welding, evil villain, making robots in Cote Tower in San Francisco. The loud voice that talks too much is me...sorry. This exercises is a great activity for a cartooning class or for an artist appearance. It's amazing how easy it is to come up with a good character idea. Linda drew the picture with a large brush pen filled with ink.

Linda's website is http://www.castlewaiting.com and her books are now published by http://www.fantagraphics.com/

NOTE: at the start of the montage scene there is some strange glitch in the video where the first photo image gets stuck. Maybe it's just me.
