Aztec dancers on stage.
Well I guess my videos of the dancers are too big for Bluesky. There is only one of the Aztec dancers in this picture. 😓 I won't say costume because I know saying that is very offensive to Native Americans. I will say that their regalia was incredible.

Colorful creature with big teeth from the other side.
This sculpture was behind us. There were quite a few Mexican touches this year at Artspire. The description says it is an alebrije.

I think it's a jack o'lantern with a flower.

Broken Easter eggs, with creatures drawn by others coming out of the eggs. Above the eggs is says "Draw a creature hatching from the eggs!"
Oh duh, my bad. This guy was one of the professional 6. Nicer dude than me. He drew the eggs than wrote a challenge for people to come draw the creatures coming out of the eggs.

Professional drawers?

Yellow and beige lizard creature curved in a circle with spots of moss and flowers.
Mike said I think that there were 6 professional artists, including Mike and myself. The plan was to have us to stick to the one side. I think that kind of fell apart though. Chase Gentry was for sure one of the professional 6.

Statue of Liberty with tears from one eye.
My drawing from today I hope it comes off as in keeping with #nokingsday. Mike was cool enough to let me go political for this. Early on when I was blocking colors in I think some people confused me with MAGA, I didn't have the tear in yet.

Chubby girl covered in mineral sunscreen and chalk, wearing a hat and smirking.
At Artspire in La Crosse. My drawing is done. Having a debate if I want to wait around 2 hours until the Lovechild opens up. Wondering if the fancy Italian place will be okay with me looking like this. My muscles are dead. More posts to come with the drawings from today.
