  1. Wow! You are so extremely talented Robin! Even down to the tilt of Jan Bell’s head. You have a real special gift, and I love to see you at work too! (I caught you sketching!) such a treat!

  2. Thank you, Hilary! I always wonder what people can and can’t see from stage;) I’m planning to see you all on Thursday again.

  3. Robin, these are just lovely. Like Hilary said, you always capture something beyond words. I love how the jalopy head is watching the show!

    I am so enamored with your work. It’s really amazing how you capture the spirit of the performers in your drawings. Yay Robin! And it was such a great night for me…there I am in EVERY drawing. Life is sweet.

    And Jan, the head is actually watching the audience!

  5. He’s watching us watching you;)
