Take Action NOW! / Actúa YA!

Congress is rushing these bills through to a floor vote. The House will start marking up their version of the bill at 2:00 today; the Senate will do so tomorrow. To try to stop this bill, we first need to slow down the race to get it passed.

Take Action

5 de Mayo
Posted by Leo Espinosa at 10:54 am on May 6th

Last night, at the New England Gallery of Latin American Art (NEGLAA) was the opening of Chingasos, a multi media art event about legendary Mexican pugilist El Chango Verde (El C.V.) created by my good friend Raul Gonzalez and members of Los Cinco Milagros. I love going to East Boston, it's a mini Latin America over there, but yesterday at the gallery, with the music, the people in Mexican costumes, and the colorful images, I felt like I had really crossed the border. Awesome show Raul! Felicitaciones!!
 

El Chango Verde, one of my favorite paintings.

 

I took the interns with me; They got a little crazy with the tequila those kids.

El Malpensante
Posted by Leo Espinosa at 6:04 pm on April 21st


Here's a cover I just finished for El Malpensante, my favorite literary magazine from Colombia. It was inspired by this beautiful song by John Frusciante and by the madness of a couple of books I'm reading.

Welcome to Second Grade
Posted by Leo Espinosa at 2:06 pm on April 19th


Ex Dark Horse Comics knight, Phil Amara invited me yesterday to talk to his students about cartoons, comics, the power of dreaming and the joy of drawing. Phil teaches second grade at Curtis Guild public school in East Boston (think Jackson Heights, Queens NY) and among many latino kids in his class we counted three from Colombia which to me was extra bonus points. Man, did we have a blast!!!? they asked great questions, had very smart comments the best part for me was that I don't think they even blinked during my entire presentation.
Thank you Phil and thank you second grade for a wonderful morning!

Friday Pencil Fiesta GREAT News!
Posted by Leo Espinosa at 5:59 pm on April 18th

Edel did his homework and sent it early today. Thanks buddy, you get a 10 for the enthusiasm!

Due to last Friday's success, our Pencil Fiesta will be featured in a separate section of Drawger and it will be happening not every week but on the last Friday of every month, so we all have time to recover in between margaritas. Good old Zimm is backstage setting up the piñata, so once again, thanks to him for encouraging us to play around and do this kind of silly experiments. We'll let you know as soon as things are ready and you can pencil out the official opening in your calendar.
 
Keep on drawin'

Priceless
Posted by Leo Espinosa at 10:05 am on April 16th

From time to time I get some really nice e-mails and letter from kids (or from very kind parents) telling me how much they love Sushi Pack and the fuzzy feeling I get in my heart is pretty special. This one in particular was worth a post: It came from my talented buddy Cade (age 5) from Oregon. Apparently, Cade has turned into a Sushi super-hero 24/7 which reminds me of making my mom nuts about my obsession of having to go to bed with my Zorro costume on (every single night).
Thanks for making my day, Cade. Enjoy the print!
Suuuuuuushi Roll!!!!
