February Montreal Comic Jam

It seems as if the new cheap-beer venue, plus some more vigorous promotion on Facebook and other places, is helping the Montreal comic Jam catch on again. Nice crowd in the otherwise very quiet Bar des Pins last night, Thursday Feb 28, even though it was a very cold night.

Here's Fanie Grégoire (r) and her friend, to whom I was introduced, but forgot to write down her name. We need "sign-in" sheets again.


Olivier and Yan, being monkeys.


Yan with one of his intricate cityscapes and Tim Burton-esque characters, which he does sometimes for Ubisoft. greentea.canalblog.com


Maïté www.minikim.net who does the spiffy illustrating for that book Alta Donna, in front of her there.


Shane Simmons, whom I haven't seen at one of these in maybe a year!

Here are a couple of my sketches of the participants:

Here's a [link] to the full flickr photo set of pictures I took. People were peeved at my flashing away, but I hope they're happy now with a record of the night. Apologies to those good artists at the other table I didn't snap. I hope to have a couple of sample pages of jams to put up here. Thanks to all who showed up, and see you again at the end of March!
