today was the second time i gave away one of my drawings. in fact i had the good fortune to hand it to Stephen Colbert at today's Colbert Report taping, during the brief audience q+a bit before the actual program. needless to say, the drawing i gave him was Future U.S. President.

he asked, 'ah, what, exactly, in this drawing makes me president?' i had no ready answer so i pointed to the green in the upper right. i should have said something like 'the halo and the tie'.

i ripped the drawing out of my sketchbook and handed it to him without thinking about it at all. i don't think there was any identifying information on it except my signature.
