My hero Alison Bechdel was drawing portraits in support of MoCCA for a while during the Art Fest. It's fun to watch how cartoonists hold their pen, to see how they sit and what they do with their other hand. It's like watching a batter at the baseball game. Bechdel tends to lean over the page, which would make her vulnerable to an inside pitch. If I'd been on the ball I would have made a movie to show her in action, but I didn't so you'll just have to visualize this:
