Tweet: The Bryan Brinkman Experiment

Y'all Twitter? I do whenever I remember it's available, which has been like five times. I'm more of a Facebooker.

Last night's offering of Late Night w/ Jimmy Fallon had a segment where they attempted to help an audience member get a whole lotta Twitter followers. According to the guy being tweeted - @bryanbrinkman - it's working.

Here's the clip form the show:

An Illustrator's Observations and Lessons Learned at the 2012 NESCBWI Conference

Draw the environment before adding the character. If you're modeling for a drawing class, the Angry Hulk pose and Tebowing are crowd pleasers. Surround yourself with talent and you'll eventually win a door prize. My drawings need texture. If Brian Lies is speaking, I'm listening. I dare anyone not to blush when a group of attractive lit agents and writers shout your name from a balcony. All of the illustrators I met were extremely cool people. But not all extremely cool people can be illustrators of course. And then there’s Hazel Mitchell… Honored to have sketched in the Octo-Puss in Boots book. BTW, Casey Girard is cool as hell. Love and care about each character and the rest will be easier. You don't have to know how to play the banjo to play the banjo. Speaking of banjos, Russ Cox deserves every accolade thrown in his direction. Harry Bliss is a comedic genius. Meeting my Facebook and Twitter illo pals was e...

The Lunch Notes Post

Image
Every day during the school year my lovely wife Wendi would create a very tasty and extremely healthy lunch for our son Jake, a recent kindergarten graduate. So of course I had to keep up with theses standards and do my own creating, which involved sketching a daily lunch note that I tucked into the mesh netting of his Batman lunch box every morning before I dropped him off at school. The lunch notes were something I had thought of doing well before he started his academic career. I was happy to see that a few of my illustrator friends on Facebook were also drawing notes for their kids on other canvases like sandwich bags and napkins. Fortunately, in spite of my often disorganized brain, I started the lunch notes on day one and kept it going for the entire school year. Some mornings the drawings were easy. Others? Not so much. I stopped by Jake's school the week before graduation to talk to his class about drawing comics. It was very cool to hear so many of the kids mention how...

Avast, You Scurvy Rats! It's The Next Big Thing Blog Tour!

Image
The Next Big Thing blog tour started in Australia, but it's sturdy sails soon caught a mighty wind (ewww...), sending it on a tour of the seven seas. The object of the tour is to bring awareness to authors & illustrators and their current work. A treasure chest filled with thank ye's goes to the very talented Wendy Martin for tagging me. I've been asked to answer 10 questions about my current book-in-progress, after which I'll tag three others who aren't just amazing illustrators and writers, but good friends as well. Now weigh anchor and set a course for some long-winded answers! 1. What is the working title of your next book? Pirates Go Shopping Some of the original character sketches. Can you tell which ones my son didn't like? 2. Where did the idea come from for the book? I entered the 2011 Picture Book Dummy Challenge organized and run so well by KidLitArt founders Wendy Martin and Bonnie Adamson. Sitting at our dining room tabl...
