Pi Day

Ok, so I posted on here later than pi day, but this was my sketch on pi day. Hope you all had a good one!



My pi day adventures in autobiographical comic form where I met with my fellow illustrators, had a pie date, took the dog for a walk, and met a talking bird and the mayor. Now, that's an eventful day. I think I was so tired by the time I finished the comic it just ends as you can see. This comic is drawn on a 5x 8" paper with a watercolor wash background.
