One of my favorite things about living in Sacramento is the tight-knit artist community. There are many weekly and monthly events centered around gathering artists together to draw, learn from each other, and to swap stories and techniques. During my first week in Sacramento, I ventured out to Empire Comics to check out the Sacramento Comic Creators’ Group, a band of artists and writers passionate about comics. I’ve made a lot of great friends, and learned a lot about comics, culture, and history through the people I’ve met at these events 🙂 Being a part of this community of artists has been a very humbling and motivating experience. I’ve been inspired to keep drawing thanks to these vibrant, supportive people 🙂 Below are some of my most recent sketches from the monthly cosplay life drawing sessions hosted by Empire Comics.
