Fern Choonet , I love the colors in your work. I checked out your website. I too used to draw in cafes in America(Portland) before I got married. I miss hanging out with creative people. BTW, I think you have a desirable style for commercial work. Keep it up.

Daniel Schallau Wow, thanks so much for the lovely comments! You have no idea how happy I feel after your encouragement! I really love your work also, especially the video you just posted! Your details and colors are amazing!
Hope we get to connect! A lot of creative friends and I go sketching sometimes, please join us! :)

Fern Choonet What part of Tokyo do you guys usually draw? I live in the most inconvenient corner of Tokyo. I'd love to join sometime, though. Thanks for your comments, by the way. -Dan

Thanks Fern Choonet and Luis Mendo. I'll definitely try to make it when I can. Living with my young family in the Suburbs it isn't always convenient for me to make it downtown, but I had fun at PauseDraw at James Stacey's comic event, even though I stunk at drawing people(I'm better at buildings). Cheers.
