Mrs. Claus was very thoughtful last Christmas and got me, among other things, tickets for my buckaroo and I to the Professional Bull Riders invitational at Madison Square Garden. (Okay, so I love the rodeo.) I brought along a sketchbook and we had a good ol' time.

| The rules in bull riding are simple... stay on for 8 seconds... |
 |
| ... not as simple as it sounds! |
 |
| The bulls are so cute... almost a ton of pure rage and fury! |
I changed drawing tools a couple of times. I sketched mostly with Primsacolor Art Stix; they're nice and sturdy and seem to last forever. You can keep a few in your pocket and it could be all you need all day.

| Brown Prismacolor Art Six. Clean and easy to use. |

| The bull pen... no pitchers in here, just bulls. |
Scheafer No-Nonsense fountain pens are a studio workhorse and I always carry one with me. These can take a beating and continue to work; I've never clogged one...ever!
You used to be able to get these pens in any stationery and drug store. Those days are long gone. I'll be doing a future post on them.
These Mitsubishi Uni pencils are terrific; they draw smooth as silk.

There's nothing like the sights and smell of the rodeo!
The PBA puts on an awesome, all-American show.
A great guys night out! |
