Sea Bird sketches



Sketches from summer 2008.
Steller sea lions at Inian Islands haulout (top) and Sea Bird in Glacier Bay.

early Steller character design drawing




This was one of the first drawings I made of Georg Steller while I was working aboard the Sea Bird.  The text surrounding him was copied from his journal.  No images of Steller exist, so I went with my gut feeling after reading about the shipwreck of the St. Peter, and that is where the idea for his appearance here came from.

Then-senior deck/now-(I think) 2nd mate John Kolodzieczyk showed me how to tie this knot last summer while I was working aboard the Sea Bird in Alaska.  I drew it in my journal so I would remember.

I met this dude in Montreal after TCAF (2005?) Caro Caron introduced us when I was interviewing people for a Service Industry-related comics project.  Hopefully, the people of Quebec aren't offended by this, I just wrote down what he was saying while we imbibed the local beer!
