Recital Poster sketch ’09

It's a bunch of asylum resi- I mean, music students!

It’s a bunch of asylum resi- I mean, music students!

Ummmm. This was my first try at a recital poster for this year’s recital. It fell through when May Ling told me she had about a dozen Conservatory students that would otherwise have gone in the middle. : P

Here’s the finished version, to remind you what I eventually came up with.

So, this version has all the important stuff, and six music students… Tab, a nice first-year, who came out nearly recognisable, KevinN… …… …who always wears shorts, JenniferH, Endy, whose name I spelled wrong (he has crazy hair but not that crazy), Clinton, who is a brilliant – and I mean jaw-dropping good – pianist, and meh on the end.

Last night, I played Zelda: Spirit Tracks, and I nearly got to the first dungeon. Zelda is a pushy little brat, isn’t she? Much different than the princesses of the same name that I  know… I mean, she knows what she’s doing, and she does it well – but she’s rather selfish and it comes across strongly. Perhaps this will be her ‘learning journey’ – after all, this Zelda has never known not being a princess! (though the other ones were the same, and they weren’t so selfish… or freaked out by everything!)

W00T IT'S A PIANO

W00T IT’S A PIANO

Huzzah! Now come listen to us all play brilliantly!

I think it might be rather long, so I hope you’re not sick of piano by the end of it.

I drew that based on the actual piano we will be playing on, using my grey-scale art markers. Also a golden art-style Sharpie. And a yellow non-Sharpie marker. And Photoshop. It wasn’t so hard once I got started.

You can’t tell that I used a different marker around the Steinway logo if you print it out. Click for a large, printable image!
