Y2K Revisited
Cool Stuff, Illustration, Personal, Sketches & Doodles
I was going through some old sketchbooks yesterday and found this sketch for a Y2K cartoon I was to do when I was a cartoonist for the Oregon State U.’s student paper The Barometer. The cartoon is circled in red.
I drew this sketch in November of 1999. The funny thing about this sketch is the note I made to myself underneath the cartoon. In case you can’t read what it says, I wrote:
I darkened up the pencil yesterday before scanning because the sketch had faded.

Well, since we all know that the end of civilization did not come the cartoon did run.
