So, Artomatic has a tradition of anonymous (or semi-anonymous) individuals who leave gifts, poems or kind comments to participants; the Benefactor, Brash, the Collector 2.0...
So, with that in mind, I thought that instead of making a regular "Top Ten" list or "Best of AOM" list, I'd try and make a sketch for my favorite displays of this year's show. I didn't quite finish as many as I wanted, but I did get about 22 sketches done and distributed back to the artists who inspired them. The're not all stellar sketches, but I tried to do them quick, so lay off man.
No name, no email, no signature or website on it. Just a small small (2" x 3 1/4" specifically) gesture to let them know they are among my favorites of this year.
More pics after the jump!

Though it wouldn't take much to figure out I did them... (golly look, a blog post about it!)
Here's how they look as I put the sketches up in the artists' spaces.

I wanted to thank you for my drawing. I absolutely love it and it was a touching end to Artomatic.
