Celebrity Sighting and Drawings

This morning Mark (aka Daddy-to-be) and I went out for brunch at Mo's. It right around the corner. Usually I like to get buzzed off the free cheap champagne, but obviously not anymore. We are always on the lookout for a celebrity. Hadn't seen anyone in a while, but today we saw Paul Dooley with whom I assume was his wife. You might remember him as the Dad in Sixteen candles. He still looks great.


And here are some new drawings and sketches.

This is Nicole. I really liked her as a model. She had a strong personality and wore a lot of eye makeup.


I did another quick sketch at the end of the session to get the look of how a model really feels after posing for ungrateful artists for three hours.



And this is from a costumed session. I wish I had more time to have drawn more of the costume, which was complete with buckle shoes, hose, and puffy pants. He just needed a sword.

Celebrity Sighting


Last night Mark, a few of his fun Family Guy pals, and I went to see Live Free or Die Hard. Yes, not my first choice. I am just not that aggressive into going to see movies. That, and there just isn't that many that I usually want to see. So, Mark, who is way more into seeing movies than I am, usually (drags) takes me to a movie he is very excited about.
It was a very fun, completely over the top movie, and the guys were so into it that it was even more fun. At the opening credits, Mark's friend Dom shouted, 'John McClane!!!'. And everyone in the theatre cheered and applauded. Geeks.
The very best part was after the movie in the lobby. We were just standing around waiting for the bathrooms, when Geena Davis walks into the bathroom. She looked awesome. I think she is 50 years old, and still looks like she is 30. So I followed her into the bathroom. Don't worry, I didn't knock on her stall for an autograph. She was with a friend and her friends kid. When they came out they met up with a guy and walked out. Don't know who the guy was.

It is so fun to live where the celebrities do.

I See Famous People

So Mark and I were at Trader Joe's the other night because we needed spinach, and there is this couple there with an adorable baby. They are totally rock and roll punked out. The Mom has a tattoo on her arm that says "F**k Off", and the Dad is this big scary guy who is completely gah-gah and goo-goo-ing the little baby. Mark says to me, 'Isn't that the singer of Queens of The Stone Age? The cool thing about being in LA is that when you say,"Gee that looks like so-n-so", it IS that so-n-so. Of course this is so cool for Mark and me because we are big fans. We were awe-struck! I also have seen Steven Spielberg and Edie McClurg at this TJ's.
