Kistler's all over YouTube.

I was a huge fan of a Canadian show called Mr. Dressup, similarly Mr. Dressup would break drawing down into simple to understand elements, and I'd take out my paper and draw, but then he'd go on from the basic to just kicking ass, and I'd get so damn frustrated!  He was way better than little kid me was!  He also dressed up in fabulous costumes out of his "tickle trunk."  Such wonderful, creative children's programming.

I'm pretty good at drawing, painting, sculpting, etc.  I was just always good at that sort of stuff.  My art teacher in highschool used to sneak me extra supplies to take home and use on my own.  I still have the acrylic paint set and chalk pastels he gave me.  They're quality items - they'd cost me over $50 to replace.  I took some theatre design classes in university too, and I still have some of my projects.  It's been a while since I've taken that stuff out.

Hey remember when Teatime wanted us to draw wordless strips and then other people would write in the words?  I drew a strip, emailed it to him, then he disappeared.  Anyone want me to email them the drawing I made, and you can add text?  I'm very low-tech, so I drew it by hand then scanned it.  I could send it to several people and they could each do different text based on it - that might be interesting.

My guitar teacher used to do the same thing. It was always frustrating, but kind of cool to listen to anyway. He was probably not a great teacher.

Kistler once exploited Gabe from Penny Arcade. (scroll down)

I used to watch that show a lot too.  I noticed that he always put a line inside open doorways "to make it look like a hallway behind there."  I remember thinking, at the time, that I didn't know of any houses that had front doors that opened onto a hallway.

Weird.
