Announcing The Bureau of Drawers Quarterly

Cover by Nikki Burch

Cover by Nikki Burch

I’ve spent much of the last four months organizing, editing and designing a new ongoing anthology for my sketchgroup, the Seattle-based cartoonists collective The Bureau of Drawers. The end result has been the very first issue of our first regular title, The Bureau of Drawers Quarterly (Vol.A), which debuted yesterday to some small acclaim and positive response.

The BOD Quarterly is available as a FREE digital download – we want everyone to have a chance to see our stuff – and is available in PDF, CBR and now EPUB formats. Check out the original promotional post:

Launching today, the Bureau of Drawers is pleased as punch to announce the very first issue of THE BUREAU OF DRAWERS QUARTERLY, our all-new all-digital and completely free anthology!

Featuring artwork and stories from Bureaucrats Amanda Robinson, Marc Palm, Adam Watson, Scott Faulkner, Jon Morris, Stevie VanBronkhorst, Breanne Boland, Sarah Taylor, Adam Eivy and Carl Nelson with cover art by Nikki Burch!

The Bureau of Drawers Quarterly Volume A will be available only as a free digital download – so if you see anyone selling copies of it from a station wagon parked by the side of the highway bearing a hand-painted sign reading “BOROUGH OF DRAWS QUATERS – $1″ then that guy is a PHONY!

Spread the word, tell your friends, download a bunch – one for every member of the family! What have you got to lose – except the edge of your seat? (Wait, I think I did that wrong).

Economy of Line II at Urbanlight Studios

This upcoming Friday the 13th (oooh, spooky!), Seattle-based sketchgroup The Bureau of Drawers (of which I’m a merry member) will be hosting their second Economy of Line show at Urbanlight Studios (8537 Greenwood Ave N, Seattle WA) during the Greenwood-Phinney Art Walk.

More than a dozen members of the group will be set up at live-drawing stations on both floors of UrbanLight studios, actually creating the gallery show from scratch – we begin the evening with all the gallery walls completely devoid of art, then we draw like little crazy people in an attempt to make enough original art to fill every square inch! It’s madness!

The last Economy of Line show was a blast, so I hope you Seattle-area locals will join us – the artists will be approachable, available, and happy to chat, as well as to take suggestions and commissions. Additionally, all the work produced that night will be for sale, for very reasonable prices - you can walk up and buy the art right off the wall, and for little more than walking-around money. You got walking-around money, don’t you? If not, why are you walking around? See, I win.

So, please do swing by, we’d love to see you, and help spread the word if you can:
