Gun Show and the Sally Baptiste Campaign – Aug.26th, 2006!

Saturday I participated in the Sally Baptiste for Orange County Mayor Campaign at the Central Florida Gun Show. It was lots of smiles, handing out literature and educating the public about the candidates. Sally was there along with Michael Domanico, who I drew on the right. We were outside at a great location to meet and greet those attending. The only other candidate to attend was Katherine Harris, who spent her time inside the show.
I went into the Gun Show to circulate my Sally Baptiste t-shirt and to look around at my fist gun show. Sparked by needing to artistically record my travels and the need to learn how to better draw guns, I sketched several guns while I was there. Below is one. The owner called it a SKS, a Russian-made gun used after WWII. At another time I’ll have to go to a gun show just to draw guns.
