The Drink and Draw Social Club-FX Edition

The FX 2009 Show was a great success. Friday night after the show we made sure to stop by the Drink and Draw to hang out with the cool kids. The Drink and Draw Social Club was founded by Dave Johnson, Jeff Johnson and Dan Panosian. The name sums it up very nicely: you go to a bar, you drink, you draw and you socialize.

Among others, those attending included:

Sean “Cheeks” Galloway stopped by and did a few sketches for us:

He also did a few others, including a Hellboy for Tim Townsend:

Dan Panosian also did one for Ben Templesmith:

We didn’t get a chance to get pictures of everyone’s sketches, but we got some great group shots of the social club aspect.

Jim Mahfood is a Kung-Fu Master while Ben Templesmith is more of a Beer-Fu kind of guy:
Templesmith and Mahfood were having a great time!
