I kept waiting for the tattoos on her legs to come to life, in some futuristic sci-fi scene. Alas, we were all safe last week at the Society of Illustrators. Great to see Ronnie, Margaret, and Julia that night.—Dominick

Sitting down I scrambled to get my act together, paints out, pens ready, water, what else am I forgetting, oh, draw, draw, draw. How long is left on the pose? 7:03. Oh, who cares.
