4. Snooki


When you decide you’re going to draw everyday, you have to accept the fact that some days you’ll have your A-Game and some days you’ll have your B-Game.  Sigh. 

I don’t know what letter of the alphabet I was bringing to Snooki, but it sure fell flat.  Believe it or not, I was not attempting to do a caricature.  It’s poorly drawn and that’s a fact.  Looks just enough like her to be passable.  Snooki, I’m sorry! *

But it was significant for a few reasons.  It was a contemporary subject and a random choice, and I wanted the series to be able to go in different, unpredictable directions.  And by virtue of the subject matter (and not the quality of the drawing by any means) it elicited quite a response from people when I posted it on FB, as you can imagine.  

In fact, I was sorry quite a few times in the 100 days, and went back later to make amends.  To Snooki, and many others.
