Comics Sketchbooks by Steven Heller

Wow- to be included with the likes of Steve Brodner, Arnold Roth, and Bill Plympton, to name a very few!  I recently received my copy of Comics Sketchbooks and last night finally had a chance to really look through it.  A wonderful collection of sketches in a wide variety of styles and techniques; I’m glad I wasn’t aware of the incredible talent represented here when I agreed to send Steven Heller some pages from my sketchbooks.

My new look

Well, I finally got a makeover.  I’ve been meaning to re-design my website for a while now (ok, years) but ever since trading in my print syndication for full-time animated editorial cartoons at the Washington Post, I just couldn’t find the time.  My motivation came when Sara Thaves of the Cartoonist Group and I teamed up to create the app, POTUSpick– since there would be a link to my personal website within the app.  Many thanks to Ken Smith , who designed and built the new and improved www.anntelnaes.com.
