I’m taking a little break before finishing page 7 and thought I’d show a little peek at what my drawing table looks like in action. As I said on facebook when I posted the original photo, my left-handedness requires that I start inking in the lower right and work my way to the upper left.

No matter how bad I am at inking, I don’t know how I could ever let someone else ink my pencils. The rapid deadlines of editorial cartooning have made my process evolve to the point where I really don’t draw in pencil so much as I sketch and roughly lay out what’s happening; almost all of the detail work happens at the inking stage.
